August 2018 in “Cancer research” In this study, researchers found that selectively disabling ribonucleotide excision repair in mouse epidermis caused DNA damage, skin inflammation, and led to skin cancer, suggesting a potential role for this repair mechanism in tumorigenesis.
This study found that selectively inactivating ribonucleotide excision repair in mouse epidermis leads to DNA damage, keratinocyte intraepithelial neoplasia, and squamous cell carcinoma, indicating a potential tumor-promoting mechanism related to compromised genome maintenance.
This study found that selective inactivation of ribonucleotide excision repair in mouse epidermis led to spontaneous DNA damage, skin inflammation, and the development of squamous cell carcinoma, suggesting potential implications for cancer development in humans.
February 2026 in “Libri Oncologici Croatian Journal of Oncology” The review found that imiquimod is a promising non-invasive treatment for HPV-related neoplasias, particularly effective for vulvar lesions, but notes that more research is needed to optimize its use.
