October 2021 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study found that targeting HSP70 can suppress basal cell carcinoma growth, underscoring the importance of tumor microenvironment interactions in cancer progression.
25 citations
,
February 2021 in “Diabetes” This study found that Dock5 plays a crucial role in keratinocyte function and wound healing, with its expression reduced in diabetic models but improving healing when restored.
35 citations
,
January 2006 in “Cancer Research” This study found that overexpressing PKCδ in transgenic mice did not reduce squamous cell carcinoma development induced by UV radiation, despite its effectiveness against TPA-promoted cancer in these mice.
87 citations
,
September 2019 in “Nature Communications” In this study, researchers identified that upon tissue injury in a mouse model, epidermal cells at the wound edge convert to an embryonic-like state with SOX11 and SOX4 playing a central role in modulating epidermal development and cell migration genes.
April 2010 in “Cancer Research” This study found significant upregulation of IDO-1 and IDO-2 in human basal cell carcinomas, suggesting that IDO production may confer immune privilege characteristics to the tumors, potentially impacting their growth.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” The researchers reported that in nonmelanoma skin cancers, the expression of osteopontin splice variants is significantly higher compared to normal skin, with OPN-a elevated in basal cell carcinoma more than OPN-c.
June 2026 in “Strathprints: The University of Strathclyde institutional repository (University of Strathclyde)” In this study, researchers found that inhibiting IKKα in patient-derived CCS tumour models reduces tumour viability, supporting the potential for topical IKKα inhibitors as a treatment for CCS.

November 2023 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” This study observed that SOX18 promotes the proliferation of dermal papilla cells in Hu sheep by activating the Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway, suggesting its key role in wool growth.
3 citations
,
March 2019 in “European Journal of Dermatology” A specific gene mutation (Y449H in K10) was found in a patient with severe skin disorder.

,
July 2024 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Immune cells boost stem cell activity in hairy moles, causing more hair growth.
July 2024 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” August 2024 in “Animal Bioscience” This study found that in Rex rabbits, exosomal miR-222-3p from dermal papilla cells suppresses melanogenesis in melanocytes by targeting the SOX10 gene, highlighting a novel mechanism by which exosomes influence melanin production.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that KROX20 is crucial for hair follicle development and epidermal homeostasis, as its deletion in skin epithelial cells led to hair loss and increased epidermal thickness.
24 citations
,
January 2019 in “Theranostics” This study found that loss of the Pten gene in Lgr5+ hair follicle stem cells promoted squamous cell carcinoma formation through the Akt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
