A rare benign skin growth called melanocytic matricoma was identified in a 69-year-old man.
research Steroidogenic factor-1 lineage origin of skin lesions in Carney complex syndrome
Skin lesions in Carney complex are likely caused by a specific group of skin cells that promote pigment production due to a genetic mutation.
research 1379 Cell of origin contributes to the melanoma diversity
Different types of stem cells in the skin contribute to the variety of melanoma forms.
research Hair repigmentation in microcystic adnexal carcinoma
Hair repigmentation can indicate malignancy and should be investigated.

The nucleus is key in controlling skin growth and repair by coordinating signals, gene regulators, and epigenetic changes.
research Montagna Symposium 2015: Harnessing Stem Cells to Reveal Novel Skin Biology and Disease Treatments
The symposium showed that stem cells are key for understanding and treating skin diseases and for developing new skin models and therapies.
research Determining the Secondary Role of UV Light in Swimmers Melanoma Genesis
Hydrogen peroxide is the main risk factor for melanoma in swimmers, not UV light.
research Rare Cutaneous Side Effects of Imiquimod: A Review on Its Mechanisms, Diagnosis, and Management
Imiquimod can cause rare skin side effects, some irreversible, and long-term follow-up is important for users.
research ‘Malignant melanoma microecosystem’: Immunohistopathological insights into the stromal cell phenotype
Stromal cells in melanoma promote tumor growth and spread.
research Functional analysis of thymosin beta-4 using over-expressing transgenic mice
Melanoma cells lose their ability to form tumors when placed in a zebrafish embryo environment.
research Pigmented Epithelioid Melanocytoma (PEM)/Animal Type Melanoma (ATM): Quest for an Origin. Report of One Unusual Case Indicating Follicular Origin and Another Arising in an Intradermal Nevus
The conclusion is that Pigmented Epithelioid Melanocytoma can start from hair follicle stem cells or from a mole on the skin.
research Clinical Snippets
Some cells may slow melanoma growth, a protein could affect skin pigmentation, a gene-silencing method might treat hair defects, skin bacteria changes likely result from eczema, and a defensin protein could help treat multiple sclerosis.
research Clinical Snippets
New findings suggest potential treatments for melanoma, hyperpigmentation, hair defects, and multiple sclerosis, and show skin microbiome changes don't cause atopic dermatitis.
research Coming of Age of Melanogenesis-Related Proteins
Tyrosinase and gp100 proteins can help diagnose and treat melanoma.
research American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery - 2018 Late-Breaking Abstracts
New treatments and technologies in laser medicine show promise for improving skin conditions, fat reduction, cancer treatment, wound healing, and hair restoration.
research News in brief
Researchers found potential new targets for treating melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers, and identified a possible cause and treatment for male pattern baldness and eczema.
research Cellular and Immunological Aspects of Basel Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma cases are rising globally.
research Cellular and Immunological Aspects of Basel Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma cases are rising globally.
research Prevalence and distribution of melanocytic naevi on the scalp: a prospective study
Moles on the scalp are more common in people with more body moles and atypical moles, but not linked to balding.
research Functionally distinct melanocyte populations revealed by reconstitution of hair follicles in mice
Only skin melanocytes, not other types, can color hair in mice.
research Dormant tumor cells in ret transgenic mouse melanoma model and their interaction with memory T cells
Dormant melanoma cells in mice interact minimally with memory T cells due to a suppressive tumor environment.
research From neural crest cells to melanocytes: cellular plasticity during development and beyond
Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
research Finasteride inhibits melanogenesis through regulation of the adenylate cyclase in melanocytes and melanoma cells
Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.
research Dual aspects of B cells in tumor immunity; B cells are capable of positive and negative regulation for tumor immunity against B16 melanoma
B cells can both help and hinder the body's defense against melanoma.
research Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activates melanocyte stem cells in vitro and in vivo
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway can activate melanocyte stem cells and may help regenerate hair follicles.
research Keratinocyte Stem Cells but Not Melanocyte Stem Cells Are the Primary Target for Radiation-Induced Hair Graying
Radiation mainly affects keratinocyte stem cells, not melanocyte stem cells, causing hair to gray.
