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 The Dermatological Consequences of Obesity
Obesity increases the risk of skin infections, inflammatory conditions, and melanoma, but not basal cell carcinoma.
research Cutaneous Neoplasms in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1
People with myotonic dystrophy type 1 tend to develop basal cell carcinoma at a younger age but not more frequently than others.
research Characteristics of Non-Melanoma Skin Cancers of the Cutaneous Perioral and Vermilion Lip Treated by Mohs Micrographic Surgery
Mohs micrographic surgery is effective for early-stage non-melanoma skin cancers on the lips, with basal cell carcinoma more common on the upper cutaneous lip and squamous cell carcinoma more common on the lower vermilion lip.
research Gender Differences in Tumor and Patient Characteristics in Those Undergoing Mohs Surgery
Men are more likely to have larger basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas, while women have more superficial basal cell carcinomas and tumors on their legs and central face.
research Characterization of CD4+ Stem Cells of the Skin and Their Role in Skin Homeostasis and Tumorigenesis

research Anti-Basal Cell Carcinoma Efficacy of a Topical Hedgehog Inhibitor Without Adverse Effects in Gorlin Syndrome Patients in a Phase 2 Randomized Controlled Trial
Topical patidegib gel effectively treats basal cell carcinoma in Gorlin syndrome patients without causing the side effects seen with oral treatments.
research Cells to Surgery Quiz: December 2017
Mohs micrographic surgery is effective for treating basal cell carcinoma on the eyelid, while radiotherapy has higher recurrence rates, and topical vitamin D3 may reduce and delay BCC formation in mice.
research Stromal Re-Organization in Hair Follicle Development and Cancer Suppression
Activating Sonic Hedgehog signaling in cancer stroma may help treat basal cell carcinoma.
research P62 Pre-Clinical Pharmacological and Skin Penetration Profile of LDE255, a Novel and Specific Smoothened Antagonist

research Screening for 21-Hydroxylase-Deficient Nonclassic Adrenal Hyperplasia Among Hyperandrogenic Women: A Prospective Study
Testing basal 17-HP levels is a good way to screen for nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia in women with high androgen levels.
research Surgery And Laser
Various skin conditions like cutaneous lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, and basal cell carcinoma can be effectively treated with antihypertensive agents, NB-UVB phototherapy, and imiquimod cream respectively. Vaccines are effective against genital herpes and HPV-16 infection. Early intervention is crucial for conditions like diabetic foot ulcers and neonatal herpes. Certain dyes can cause hand dermatitis, and there's a link between smoking/drinking and psoriasis in men. No direct link was found between low iron levels and chronic hair loss in women.
research Pediatric Dermatology
Skin problems are common in Bangladesh due to arsenic, prompt treatment of diabetic foot ulcers is crucial, maternal transmission causes most neonatal herpes, treatments for pediatric vasculitis are effective, the chickenpox vaccine works, more frequent UVB therapy helps psoriasis, certain jobs increase hand dermatitis risk, monoclonal antibodies treat psoriasis well, lifestyle affects psoriasis, alefacept improves psoriasis, imiquimod cream partially clears basal cell carcinoma, and iron may not help chronic hair loss.
research Dedifferentiation of Committed Epithelial Cells Into Stem Cells In Vivo
Certain mature cells in mouse lungs can turn back into stem cells to aid in tissue repair.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2018 Update on Objectives, Design, and Main Results
The Rotterdam Study updated findings on elderly health, focusing on heart disease, genetics, lifestyle effects, and disease understanding.
research Serotoninergic And Melatoninergic Systems Are Fully Expressed In Human Skin
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2012 Objectives and Design Update
The Rotterdam Study updated its design and objectives in 2012, providing insights into various diseases in the elderly, including skin cancer, bone health, liver disease, neurological and psychiatric conditions, and respiratory issues.
research Tracing the Cellular Origin of Cancer
Understanding where cancer cells come from helps create better prevention and treatment methods.
research Overexpression of Activin A in the Skin of Transgenic Mice Reveals New Activities in Epidermal Morphogenesis, Dermal Fibrosis, and Wound Repair
Overexpression of activin A in mice skin causes skin thickening, fibrosis, and improved wound healing.
research Sic Transit Gloria: Farewell to the Epidermal Transit Amplifying Cell?
New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.
research Cutaneous Adverse Effects of Targeted Therapies
