research Acute Sensitivity of the Oral Mucosa to Oncogenic K-ras
Oncogenic K-ras causes rapid cancerous changes in the mouth's lining.
research The Biology of Hair Growth
Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.
research Histopathological and Immunohistochemical Study of Trichoblastoma in the Rabbit
Trichoblastomas in rabbits are linked to uncontrolled embryonic hair growth and have distinct histological features.
research Patched-Associated Tumors: Modifier Genes and Pathogenesis
The document concludes that the development of certain tumors is influenced by genetic background and that a specific gene modification can lead to tumor regression and reduced growth.
research Retinoids
Retinoids are effective for skin conditions like severe acne and psoriasis but must be used with caution due to potential side effects and risks during pregnancy.
