Tissue-engineered skin can support hair growth after grafting, especially with mouse-derived dermis.
research Solitary Keratoacanthoma of the Scalp: A Case Report
Surgical removal of a scalp keratoacanthoma is effective and prevents recurrence, but hair may not regrow.
research Dysregulation of Grainyhead-like 3 expression causes widespread developmental defects
Not having enough or having too much of the protein Grainyhead-like 3 leads to various developmental problems.
research Cutaneous and Mucosal Lichen Planus: A Comprehensive Review of Clinical Subtypes, Risk Factors, Diagnosis, and Prognosis
Lichen Planus is a less common condition affecting skin and mucous membranes, with various types and associated risk factors, challenging to diagnose, significantly impacts life quality, and may have a risk of cancerous changes in oral lesions.
research Spontaneous tumour regression in keratoacanthomas is driven by Wnt/retinoic acid signalling cross-talk
Skin tumor regression is helped by retinoic acid signaling blocking Wnt signaling.
research Follicular mucinosis in association with Sezary syndrome
A patient with Sézary syndrome showed improvement after treatment and the study suggested follicular mucinosis might indicate future lymphoma risk.
research Indian Hedgehog Controls Proliferation and Differentiation in Skin Tumorigenesis and Protects against Malignant Progression
Indian Hedgehog helps control skin cell growth and protects against aggressive skin cancer.
research MmuPV1 infection and tumor development of T cell-deficient mice is prevented by passively transferred hyperimmune sera from normal congenic mice immunized with MmuPV1 virus-like particles (VLPs)
Giving immune serum from vaccinated mice to mice without T cells prevents infection and tumor growth.
research Controversial Concepts
The author now believes tricholemmal carcinoma is a rare type of infundibular squamous cell carcinoma and more research is needed on these tumors.
research Epidemiology of skin cancer in the mature patient
Older adults have a high rate of skin cancers like basal cell carcinoma and melanoma, mainly due to UV exposure and age.
research Horn With Miliary Calcification in Squamous Cell Carcinoma
A unique case of skin cancer showed unusual calcification, possibly linked to calcium-binding proteins.
research No Evidence That Human Papillomavirus Is Responsible for the Aggressive Nature of Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa–Associated Squamous Cell Carcinoma
HPV does not cause aggressive cancer in RDEB patients.
research A keratin 15 containing stem cell population from the hair follicle contributes to squamous papilloma development in the mouse
Keratin 15 cells from hair follicles help develop and maintain skin tumors in mice.
research Mechanism of TAp73 inhibition by ΔNp63 and structural basis of p63/p73 hetero-tetramerization
ΔNp63α stops TAp73β from working in skin cancer by blocking its access to specific genes, not by directly interacting with it.
research Epithelial keratin and filaggrin expression in seborrheic keratosis: evaluation based on histopathological classification
Seborrheic keratosis shows varied cell differentiation, and keratin analysis helps diagnose skin tumors.
research Hair Follicle Disruption Facilitates Pathogenesis to UVB-Induced Cutaneous Inflammation and Basal Cell Carcinoma Development in Ptch+/− Mice
