Research
870-900 / 1000+ results research Bone Morphogenetic Protein Antagonist Noggin Promotes Skin Tumorigenesis via Stimulation of the Wnt and Shh Signaling Pathways
Noggin promotes skin tumors by activating certain cell signaling pathways.
research Oncogenes and morphogens: intricacies of targeted therapy in cutaneous basal cell carcinoma
Targeted therapy for skin cancer is complex due to the role of the hedgehog pathway in both cancer and hair growth.
research 1376 A multi-scale spatial atlas of human skin links cancer cell states to site of origin
The research shows that skin cancer likely originates from hair follicles and that certain cell populations expand to promote skin cancer growth.
research A Feature-Preserving Hair Removal Algorithm for Dermoscopy Images
The algorithm effectively removes hair from skin images, improving melanoma diagnosis accuracy.
research A case of systemic mastocytosis - an ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study of the dermal mast cells in relation to activation of the epidermal melanin unit
Prednisone reduces organ mast cell infiltration but does not alter the abnormal appearance of mast cells in systemic mastocytosis.
research Skin Deep and Deeper: Multiple Pathways in Basal Cell Carcinogenesis
The research suggests new treatments for skin cancer could target specific cell growth pathways.
research Cell proliferation during fibre growth initiation in ferret hair follicles
Ferret hair growth starts between 0 and 4 days after melatonin treatment, with cell growth peaking in the hair germ and declining as the hair matures.
research Viewpoint 3
Oxidative stress plays a significant role in vitiligo, and both skin and non-skin cells may be involved.
research Targeted expression of spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase increases susceptibility to chemically induced skin carcinogenesis
Increasing SSAT makes skin more prone to cancer.
research Reprogramming of three-dimensional microenvironments for in vitro hair follicle induction
Reprogramming 3D environments can create hair follicles in the lab.
research A randomized pilot study to compare hair follicle cell suspensions prepared using trypsin alone versus trypsin in combination with collagenase type I for transplantation in vitiligo
Adding collagenase to trypsin improves cell yield and repigmentation in vitiligo treatment.
research Skin abnormalities generated by temporally controlled RXRα mutations in mouse epidermis
RXRα is crucial for hair growth and skin cell function.
