research Anatomic Location of Primary Melanoma: Survival Differences and Sun Exposure
Where melanoma is on the body affects survival chances; melanomas on the back of the head are worse, while those on thighs and arms are less severe, and more sun exposure might improve survival.
research Dysplastic Nevi, Cutaneous Melanoma, and Other Skin Neoplasms in Patients with Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1: A Cross-Sectional Study
People with myotonic dystrophy type 1 have a higher chance of getting skin tumors, including melanoma.
research Loss of Epidermal Melanin Unit Integrity in Human Skin During Melanoma Genesis
Melanoma development can be linked to the breakdown of skin's melanin-producing units.
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.
research Toll-Like Receptor 3 Agonist, Polyinosinic-Polycytidylic Acid, Upregulates Carbonic Anhydrase II in Human Keratinocytes
A substance called poly(I:C) increases a protein called carbonic anhydrase II in skin cells, which might help with skin defense and healing.
research Role of Observation for Excisionally Biopsied Moderately Dysplastic Nevi with Positive Histologic Margins and Risk of Future Melanoma Development
Watching, not removing, skin growths with moderate atypia and positive edges is okay; patients may get melanoma elsewhere, especially if they've had it before.

research Scalp Melanoma: Distinctive High-Risk Clinical and Histological Features
Scalp melanomas are more dangerous and often missed, needing earlier detection.
research Cutaneous Toxicities of New Treatments for Melanoma
New melanoma treatments can cause skin side effects, including skin cancer and rashes, but combining treatments may reduce these risks.

research Malignant Epithelial Tumors: Part II. Therapy and Prevention
The document concludes that individualized treatment for malignant epithelial tumors is necessary and more research on metastatic squamous cell carcinoma treatments is needed.
research Cell of Origin Contributes to Melanoma Diversity
Different types of stem cells in the skin contribute to the variety of melanoma forms.
research Docetaxel, Cisplatin and 5-Fluorouracil in Patients with Locally Advanced Unresectable Head and Neck Cancer: A Phase I-II Feasibility Study
The treatment combining docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-FU is feasible and effective for advanced head and neck cancer.
research Blood MUC-18/MCAM Expression in Patients with Melanoma: A Suitable Marker of Poor Outcome
High MUC-18/MCAM levels in blood indicate a worse outlook for melanoma patients.
research Sun Behaviors and Quality of Life After First Cutaneous Melanoma Diagnosis
Finasteride use for hair loss is linked to an increased risk of suicidal thoughts and a higher risk of suicide.
research A 20-Year Retrospective Clinicopathologic Study on Melanoma in Singapore
Bleach baths with 0.005% hypochlorite help manage atopic dermatitis by affecting skin cells and reducing itchiness.
research Clinical Case Notes: Malignant Melanoma in Eviscerated Eyeball
Finasteride, often used for hair loss, can potentially cause cataracts.
research Tumor Regression Predicts Higher Risk of Sentinel Node Involvement in Thin Cutaneous Melanomas
