research Basal Cells in the Epidermis and Epidermal Differentiation
The exact identity of skin stem cells and how skin cells differentiate is not fully known.
research Identification of the Cell Lineage at the Origin of Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research From Basal Cell Carcinoma Morphogenesis to Alopecia Induced by Hedgehog Inhibitors: Connecting the Dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research Skin Deep and Deeper: Multiple Pathways in Basal Cell Carcinogenesis
The research suggests new treatments for skin cancer could target specific cell growth pathways.
research Oncogenes and Morphogens: Intricacies of Targeted Therapy in Cutaneous Basal Cell Carcinoma
Targeted therapy for skin cancer is complex due to the role of the hedgehog pathway in both cancer and hair growth.
research Hair Follicles’ Transit-Amplifying Cells Govern Concurrent Dermal Adipocyte Production Through Sonic Hedgehog
Cells in hair follicles help create fat cells in the skin by releasing a protein called Sonic Hedgehog.
research Dermatology Care Behind Bars
The first in-prison dermatology clinic in the U.S. faced challenges and found certain skin conditions common among inmates, with rare cases of serious skin cancer.
research The Melanocyte Photosensory System in Human Skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
research Defining the Impact of Beta-Catenin/Tcf Transactivation on Epithelial Stem Cells
β-catenin is essential for stem cell activation and proliferation in hair follicles.
research Genome-Wide Maps of Histone Modifications Unwind In Vivo Chromatin States of the Hair Follicle Lineage
