research SOX4 Is Essential for Melanoma Tumorigenesis
SOX4 is crucial for the development of melanoma.
research Sun-Protection Behaviors of Melanoma Survivors
Melanoma survivors are more likely to use sunscreen and seek shade than others, but less than half often use sunscreen and avoid the sun, and some still use tanning beds.
research Finasteride Inhibits Melanogenesis Through Regulation of the Adenylate Cyclase in Melanocytes and Melanoma Cells
Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.
