February 2007 in “Molecular Carcinogenesis” This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing human ATF3 showed hyperplastic and dysplastic changes in epithelial tissues, with a high incidence of oral cancer, suggesting potential oncogenic properties of ATF3.
6 citations
,
September 2017 in “Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine” This study found that two short peptides derived from pigment epithelium-derived factor significantly accelerated full-thickness skin wound healing in mice through mechanisms that may involve increased cell proliferation and stem cell mobilization.
277 citations
,
October 1982 in “The Journal of Cell Biology” This study found that the cytokeratin patterns in skin epithelia can distinguish between different types, with basal-cell epitheliomas showing a striking similarity to the pilosebaceous tract.
178 citations
,
April 2011 in “Journal of Clinical Investigation” This study found that the phenotype of Hedgehog/Gli-driven skin tumors in mice depends on the cell of origin, tissue context, and level of oncogenic signaling.
8 citations
,
August 1987 in “The Journal of Dermatology” This study reports that the monoclonal antibody BKN-1 specifically stained basal cell epithelioma cells and certain normal skin structures, indicating a similarity in keratin expression between the tumor and follicular epithelium below the isthmus portion.
