research Identification of the cell lineage at the origin of basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research Gender-linked differences in human skin
Male and female skin differ in many ways, which could lead to gender-specific skin treatments.
research The role of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2b in skin homeostasis and cancer development
Fgfr2b helps maintain healthy skin and prevent cancer.
research Transgenic mice overexpressing protein kinase C epsilon in their epidermis exhibit reduced papilloma burden but enhanced carcinoma formation after tumor promotion.
Overexpressing PKCepsilon in mice reduces papillomas but increases carcinomas.
research RASopathic Skin Eruptions during Vemurafenib Therapy
Vemurafenib causes skin side effects similar to RASopathies, requiring regular skin checks and UVA protection.
research The role of macrophages in skin homeostasis
Macrophages are vital for skin healing, hair growth, salt balance, and cancer defense.
research The Comparison of In Vitro Photosensitizing Efficacy of Curcumin-Loaded Liposomes Following Photodynamic Therapy on Melanoma MUG-Mel2, Squamous Cell Carcinoma SCC-25, and Normal Keratinocyte HaCaT Cells
Liposomal curcumin improves skin cancer treatment effectiveness while sparing normal cells.
research Hair follicle differentiation‐specific keratin expression in human basal cell carcinoma
Targeted therapies promoting differentiation could help treat basal cell carcinoma by exhausting cancer stem cells.
research Alopecia neoplastica simulating alopecia areata and antedating the detection of primary breast carcinoma
A woman's hair loss was initially mistaken for a common hair loss condition but was later found to be caused by breast cancer cells in her scalp.
research Cellular localization of retinoic acid receptor-gamma expression in normal and neoplastic skin.
RAR-gamma 1 is important for normal skin maintenance and differentiation.
research Aggressive Squamous Carcinomas of the Scalp
Aggressive scalp squamous cell carcinomas have a high death rate and need early, strong treatment.
research Skin precancer.
Sun exposure and genetics increase skin cancer risk from precancerous lesions.
research Direct cellular reprogramming enables development of viral T antigen–driven Merkel cell carcinoma in mice
Scientists made a mouse model of a serious skin cancer by changing skin cells with a virus and a specific gene, which is similar to the disease in humans.
research Sox9 expression in canine epithelial skin tumors
Sox9 is present in most canine skin tumors and may help understand stem cells' role in these cancers.
research Epigenetic regulations on skin wound healing: implications from current researches.
Epigenetic changes are crucial for stem cell behavior in skin wound healing and their disruption may lead to cancer.
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 Usefulness of Dermoscopy to Provide Accurate Assessment of Skin Cancers
Dermoscopy is an effective tool for accurately detecting skin cancers.
research Multiple basal cell carcinomas in a patient with myotonic dystrophy type 1
A man with myotonic dystrophy type 1 had 28 skin cancers, suggesting a link between the disease and skin cancer, emphasizing the need for sun protection and regular skin checks.
research Linear Basal Cell Carcinomas
Dr. Connelly agrees that linear basal cell carcinomas might be more aggressive but highlights the study's lack of clear criteria to identify them.
research [Basal cell carcinomas of the scalp. Review of 77 patients with 81 tumors].
The review found that basal cell carcinomas on the scalp are not more aggressive than those in other locations.
research Enhancing Lower Extremity Defect Coverage: High Viability Ultra-Thin Split-Thickness Skin Grafts Obtained from the Scalp
Scalp skin grafts effectively cover lower limb defects with high success and minimal complications.
research Beta Human Papillomavirus and Merkel Cell Polyomavirus in Skin Neoplasms
Beta-HPV and MCPyV are linked to certain skin cancers, with ongoing research and vaccine development.
research Synthetic Hair Implantation and Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Scalp
The letter argues that blaming synthetic hair implants for scalp cancer based on one report is biased and possibly coincidental.
research SOX2 in the Skin
SOX2 is crucial for skin cell function and hair growth, and it plays a role in skin cancer and wound healing.
research Multiple skin cancers in a patient within 1 year of allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplant for chronic lymphocytic leukaemia
A man got six skin cancers within a year after a cell transplant for leukemia but was cancer-free 32 months later; skin checks are important post-transplant.
research The effects of infrared radiation on the human skin
Infrared radiation can cause skin aging and cancer at high temperatures but may have therapeutic benefits at controlled levels.
research Recurrent facial microcystic adnexal carcinoma and hair transplantation on scar site
Complete surgical removal and regular check-ups are essential for treating a rare skin cancer, and hair transplant can help fix scars from cancer surgery.
research Recurrent facial Microcystic adnexal carcinoma and hair transplantation on scar site
Hair transplantation can improve scars after removing a rare skin cancer.
research Data from Synergistic Function of Smad4 and PTEN in Suppressing Forestomach Squamous Cell Carcinoma in the Mouse
