In this study, researchers discovered that the HrasG12V oncogenic mutation in murine skin epithelial cells initially promotes progenitor cell renewal but later leads to a balanced differentiation, stabilizing clone growth.
In this study, researchers observed that oncogenic HrasG12V in single murine epidermal cells leads to an initial increase in progenitor cell renewal, but ultimately results in balanced cell fate choices that limit clone growth.
August 2025 in “Scientific Reports” This study found that the protein C4BPA may link insulin resistance and acne vulgaris by influencing lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways, suggesting it as a potential mediator in the pathogenesis of both conditions.
