July 2012 in “Cold Spring Harbor perspectives in biology” The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
30 citations,
June 1993 in “The Journal of Cell Biology” The study examined the impact of a mutant Adenovirus E1a oncoprotein, NTdl646, on skin cells in transgenic mice, revealing that its expression led to abnormal hair follicle maturation, characterized by short, crooked hair shafts and a dystrophic or absent inner root sheath. Despite these hair follicle abnormalities, the surrounding skin remained normal, and there was no increase in skin tumors. The keratinocytes in these mice showed partial resistance to growth inhibitors, suggesting that the oncoprotein disrupted normal hair follicle development by interfering with growth regulatory proteins, without causing cancerous growth.
7 citations,
February 2022 in “Stem cell reviews and reports” Skin cells show flexibility in healing wounds and forming tumors, with potential for treating hair disorders and chronic ulcers.
153 citations,
April 1998 in “Current Biology” The study investigated the effects of expressing a mutant H-ras oncogene in different epidermal cell types in mice, revealing that targeting hair follicle cells led to the development of benign skin tumors that often progressed to malignant squamous and spindle carcinomas. This contrasted with previous findings where expression in interfollicular cells did not lead to spontaneous malignancy. The study involved 464 animals, with 30% developing skin tumors, highlighting the significant influence of the targeted cell type on the malignant potential of tumors, with hair follicle cells being a primary source of tumors at high risk of malignant conversion.
