600-630 / 1000+ results research Krt6a-Cre Transgenic Mice Direct LoxP-Mediated Recombination to the Companion Cell Layer of the Hair Follicle and Following Induction by Retinoic Acid to the Interfollicular Epidermis
Krt6a-Cre transgenic mice help study gene effects on hair follicle development and tumor suppression.
research Basal cell carcinomas in mice arise from hair follicle stem cells and multiple epithelial progenitor populations
Basal cell carcinomas in mice can start from hair follicle stem cells and other skin cell types, depending on signaling levels.
research Targeting the (Un)differentiated State of Cancer
Less differentiated melanoma cells are more vulnerable to a type of cell death, which could improve cancer treatments.
research Influence of Melatonin Implanting on PDGFA Gene Expression in Skin Hair Follicle
Melatonin shortens the hair growth cycle by increasing PDGFA gene expression.
research Inducible Cutaneous Inflammation Reveals a Protumorigenic Role for Keratinocyte CXCR2 in Skin Carcinogenesis
CXCR2 in skin cells promotes tumor growth.
research 571 Role of observation for excisionally biopsied moderately dysplastic nevi with positive histologic margins and risk of development of future melanoma
Watching, not removing, skin growths with moderate atypia and positive edges is okay; patients may get melanoma elsewhere, especially if they've had it before.
research Conditional Gene Expression in the Epidermis of Transgenic Mice Using the Tetracycline-Regulated Transactivators tTA and rTA Linked to the Keratin 5 Promoter
The system allows precise control of gene expression in mouse skin, useful for studying skin biology.
research Segmented Heterochromia in Black Scalp Hair Associated With Iron-Deficiency Anemia
Iron deficiency can cause hair color changes, which can be reversed with iron supplements.
research Clinicopathologic Correlate of a Fresh Eyelid Pigment Implantation
The pigment in black eyeliner can spread in the skin and may cause permanent eyelash loss.
research Scalp melanoma after antihair loss mesotherapy
A woman got melanoma on her scalp after anti-hair loss treatment with injections.
research Analysis of R199H Polymorphism of Canine Melanophilin Gene (MLPH) in Population of Czech Pointer in Slovakia
The study found genetic diversity in coat color dilution among Czech pointers in Slovakia.
research Reversal of premature hair graying treated with a topical formulation containing α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone agonist (Greyverse Solution 2%)
A woman's premature gray hair turned mostly black again after using Greyverse solution and hair supplements for 5 months.
research Identification and dissection of an enhancer controlling epithelial gene expression in skin
A specific DNA region controls skin cell gene expression by working with certain proteins.
research Primary TSC2-/meth Cells Induce Follicular Neogenesis in an Innovative TSC Mouse Model
TSC2-/meth cells can cause skin lesions, hair growth, and lung issues, and may be treated with chromatin remodeling agents.
research Spontaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Induced by the Somatic Inactivation of Retinoblastoma and Trp53 Tumor Suppressors
Inactivating both p53 and Rb genes in mice speeds up aggressive skin cancer development.
research 642 Uncovering the role of UV exposure history and genetics in determining skin sun damage
UV photography can help identify people at higher risk for skin cancer, and male pattern baldness at age 45 is linked to a higher risk of certain skin cancers.
research The Serine Protease Activity of Corin Is Required for Normal Pigment Type Switching
research Platelet-Rich Plasma in Melasma—A Systematic Review
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can significantly improve melasma, a skin pigmentation disorder, but may not add benefits when used with certain other treatments.
research Programming of induced pluripotent stem cells for hair follicle regeneration.
research Wound healing with topical BRAF inhibitor therapy in a diabetic model suggests tissue regenerative effects
A topical BRAF inhibitor, vemurafenib, can speed up wound healing and promote hair growth, especially in diabetic patients.
research Melatonin regulates the mitogen-activated protein kinase ( MAPK ) pathway via the circMPP5-miR-211-MAPK3 axis to induce secondary hair follicle differentiation and development in newborn Cashmere goat kids
Melatonin helps improve Cashmere goat hair quality by promoting hair follicle growth through a specific cell signaling pathway.
research Artificial Pigmented Human Skin Created by Muse Cells
Researchers created artificial human skin using special cells, which could help treat skin conditions like albinism and vitiligo.
research Surgical margins for melanoma.
research Subclinical speckled perifollicular melanosis of the scalp.
The scalp has a natural speckled pattern of increased pigment around hair follicles, possibly linked to local hormone production.
research The Influence of Flightless I: Regeneration versus Wound Healing
Blocking RANK signaling might help treat metastatic melanoma, but more research is needed.
research Platelet‐rich plasma is a promising therapy for melasma
Platelet-rich plasma therapy could be an effective treatment for melasma with minimal side effects.
research Photochemical alterations in human hair. I. Artificial irradiation and investigations of hair proteins
Melanin in black hair protects it from sun damage better than light-brown hair.
research Data from Spontaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma Induced by the Somatic Inactivation of Retinoblastoma and Trp53 Tumor Suppressors
Loss of the p53 gene alone causes tumors, and losing both p53 and Rb genes speeds up aggressive skin cancer.
