High S100B protein levels indicate poor survival in advanced melanoma.
research Origin, Clinical Presentation, and Diagnosis of Facial Hypermelanoses
Facial dark spots can be caused by the sun, genetics, makeup, or medicine, and are diagnosed by patient history and skin tests.
research Author response: Interplay of opposing fate choices stalls oncogenic growth in murine skin epithelium
The balance between cell renewal and differentiation controls the growth of cancerous cells in mouse skin.

Melatonin reduces BMP2 gene expression in goat hair follicles during the resting period.
research 644 Tumor cell adhesion as a risk factor for SLN metastasis and predictor of disease recurrence in primary cutaneous melanoma
Tumor cell adhesion is linked to higher risk of SLN metastasis and melanoma recurrence, and a model including these factors predicts these outcomes better than one with just clinical data.
research 1339 Casein kinase 1 inhibition in keratinocytes enhances the migration of melanocyte precursors in the hair follicle via KitL/c-Kit signaling pathway
Blocking casein kinase 1 in skin cells can help melanocyte precursors move better, potentially helping with conditions like vitiligo or gray hair.
