Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.
research Patched-assoziierte Tumoren: Modifikatorgene und Pathogenese
The document concludes that the development of certain tumors is influenced by genetic background and that a specific gene modification can lead to tumor regression and reduced growth.

Some children with methylmalonic and propionic acidaemias have skin problems related to their condition and diet.
research A highly resistant structure between the cuticle and the cortex of human hair. II . CARB , a penetration barrier
CARB is a strong barrier in human hair that prevents dye penetration.
research Conditioned medium from human adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells can modulate cell migration and morphology of keratinocytes in vitro
MSC-CM can boost skin cell growth and movement, aiding skin repair.
research Co-operation between follicular ornithine decarboxylase and v-Ha-ras induces spontaneous papillomas and malignant conversion in transgenic skin
High levels of ODC and a mutant Ha-ras gene cause tumors in mice.
research Identical p53 gene mutation in malignant proliferating trichilemmal tumour of the scalp and small cell carcinoma of the common bile duct: the necessity for therapeutic caution?
Identical p53 gene mutations in different cancers suggest the need for careful treatment.
research Female Pseudohermaphroditism Caused by a Novel Homozygous Missense Mutation of the GR Gene
