This study suggests that mouse keratin 6 isoforms, K6a and K6b, have overlapping but distinct expression profiles, differing notably in their expression in suprabasal cells and response to phorbol esters.

This study found that chromosomal microarray analysis identified copy number variations in 12% of patients with dysmorphic features and congenital anomalies, demonstrating its potential as a diagnostic tool, especially for rare CNVs and immune deficiency linked to the deletion of CTLA4.

This study found that simultaneous inactivation of pRb and p53 genes in mice's epidermis accelerates aggressive squamous cell carcinoma development, highlighting p53 as a key tumor suppressor.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing E2F1 in their epidermis developed skin tumors, confirming in vivo that deregulated E2F1 activity can contribute to tumor development.

This study found that while most mice lacking MK6a and MK6b genes died from tongue epithelium disintegration, about 25% survived and showed no hair or nail defects due to a newly discovered MK6hf gene.

This research found that the microtubule catastrophe factor KIF18B plays a crucial role in promoting spindle orientation in keratinocytes, linking this process to cell fate decisions during hair follicle morphogenesis.

A new test helps find drugs to treat head and neck cancer by targeting c-Rel.

This study found that dimethylarsinic acid significantly accelerates skin tumor development in hair follicle-targeted K6/ODC transgenic mice.

In this study, severe hair loss occurred in PKC epsilon transgenic mice treated with DFMO during skin tumor prevention, highlighting a link between polyamine biosynthesis, hair follicle maintenance, and metastasis suppression.

This case report highlights the use of microarray analysis to identify cryptic chromosomal rearrangements in a young woman with intellectual disability and multiple congenital anomalies.

This study found that CTCF is crucial for proper skin and hair follicle development in mice, affecting keratinocyte differentiation and gene expression in keratin loci.

This study found that heterozygous mice overexpressing Claudin-6 experienced alterations in epidermal and hair follicle differentiation, leading to distinctive coat characteristics and a disrupted epidermal permeability barrier.

This study reported that UVR induced PKCε phosphorylation of Stat3 in transgenic mice, suggesting a role in enhancing sensitivity to UVR-related skin cancer development.

This study found that rapamycin effectively inhibits TPA-induced keratinocyte proliferation and skin tumor promotion by targeting mTORC1 signaling in both wild-type and transgenic mice.

This study observed that disrupting the Pnkp gene in adult mice resulted in a premature aging-like phenotype, suggesting PNKP's vital role in maintaining normal growth and survival of certain progenitor cell populations.

This article discusses the human KRT72 wild-type allele's role in hair formation and reports no new research findings.

This study found that the mK6alpha and mK6beta genes in mice are regulated differently at the mRNA level, with implications for understanding K6 gene evolution and function in mammals.

This review examines cell senescence pathways in melanocytes, highlighting the involvement of telomere attrition, the p16/RB pathway, and cAMP signaling in the context of melanoma development, but reports no new findings.

In this study, the researchers identified CEP135 as a biomarker linked to poor sarcoma survival and suggested PLK1 as a potential therapeutic target for sarcoma patients with high CEP135 expression.

This study found that overexpression of antizyme in MEK-activated transgenic mice reduced skin tumor development and restored normal differentiation of keratinocyte progenitor cells, highlighting the role of polyamines in keratinocyte biology.

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.

This case study in a renal transplant patient observed that eruptive KA-type SCCs exhibited aggressive behavior and genetic expression changes following intralesional chemotherapy, indicating potential caution against routine use of such treatments in similar cases.

This study found that the simultaneous inactivation of pRb and p53 genes in mouse epidermis accelerated aggressive squamous cell carcinoma development via activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor/Akt pathway.

This study suggests that KRTAP2-3 may serve as a novel biomarker to identify cells in the polyaneuploid cancer cell state, which is linked to therapy resistance and poor prognosis in prostate cancer.

This study reviews the role of the zinc finger protein CXXC5 in cellular signaling and its implications for cancer, discussing how its dysregulation is linked to various physiological and pathological processes, as well as potential therapies targeting CXXC5.

In this study, PKCepsilon transgenic mice showed increased TNFalpha shedding during skin tumor promotion, which may contribute to the development of metastatic squamous cell carcinoma.

This study found that mice lacking both vitamin D and calcium-sensing receptors in epidermal keratinocytes are predisposed to developing squamous cell carcinoma as they age, due to impaired oxidative stress response and reduced DNA repair capabilities.

This study reports that eliminating both Trp53 and Rb genes in mouse epidermis accelerates aggressive squamous cell carcinoma development due to early activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor/Akt pathway.

In this study, researchers observed that different ERK signal activation dynamics during hair follicle regeneration are linked to cell fate specification and are affected by distinct upstream signaling pathways.
