research Laser Hair Removal: Principles, Techniques, and Advances
Laser hair removal is the most requested cosmetic procedure and has become a scientifically-based treatment suitable for all skin types.
research Hedgehog Signaling in Skin Development and Cancer
The document reviewed the role of the hedgehog (Hh) signalling pathway in skin development and cancer, particularly basal cell carcinoma (BCC), which affected 750,000 Americans annually. It highlighted how mutations in genes like PATCHED (PTCH), sonic hedgehog (Shh), and smoothened (Smo) expanded the understanding of BCC's genetic basis. The Shh pathway was crucial for stem cell maintenance and hair follicle and sebaceous gland development in the skin, though it played a minimal role in adult tissues. The review summarized studies on the Shh pathway's involvement in skin development and cancer, described animal models based on this pathway, and discussed chemoprevention strategies for BCCs, providing insights into molecular target-based prevention and treatment of skin cancer.

research Induction of Ornithine Decarboxylase in Specific Subpopulations of Murine Epidermal Cells Following Multiple Exposures to 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-Acetate, Mezerein, and Ethyl Phenylpropriolate
The study investigated the effects of multiple exposures to 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), mezerein, and ethyl phenylpropriolate (EPP) on murine epidermal cells, focusing on the induction of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity. While single applications of these agents caused similar hyperplasia and ODC induction, multiple treatments revealed significant differences in ODC activity, with TPA and mezerein inducing more than EPP. Immunocytochemical analysis showed distinct patterns of ODC-positive cells, with TPA prominently affecting perifollicular cells, mezerein affecting both interfollicular and perifollicular areas, and EPP affecting only interfollicular cells. Flow cytometry identified three keratinocyte subpopulations, with TPA causing the expansion of an intermediate-sized subpopulation not seen with EPP or mezerein. The findings suggested that TPA, a potent tumor promoter, selectively expanded a keratinocyte subpopulation hyperinducible for ODC, potentially important for neoplastic transformation, while mezerein and EPP were less effective in this regard.
