The document suggests a possible link between FAM111B gene mutations and increased cancer risk, particularly pancreatic cancer.
research Mommy, Where Do Tumors Come From? The Origins of Basal Cell Carcinomas
Some skin tumors may start from hair follicle stem cells.
research Hair Matters in Melanoma Biology
The document concludes that the immune-inhibitory environment of the hair follicle may prevent melanoma development.
research Clinical Aspects, Pathogenesis, and Therapy Options of Alopecia Induced by Hormonal Therapy for Breast Cancer
Breast cancer hormone therapy can cause hair loss, which can be treated with daily applications of specific topical solutions like minoxidil and hydrocortisone butyrate.
research Meis1 Regulates Epidermal Stem Cells and Is Required for Skin Tumorigenesis
Meis1 is crucial for skin health and tumor development.
research Live-Imaging the Interface Between Homeostasis and Cancer Initiation
Mutant cells in hair follicles are influenced by their location and interactions with surrounding cells.
research Smoking and the Skin: Effects and Therapeutic Potential
Smoking harms the skin, causing early aging and increasing cancer risk, but stopping smoking can improve skin health.
research Aberrant Activation of the Hedgehog Signaling Pathway in Malignant Hematological Neoplasms
Abnormal Hedgehog signaling in blood cancers may help tumors grow and resist chemotherapy, suggesting potential for targeted treatments.
research The Pioneer Factor SOX9 Competes for Epigenetic Factors to Switch Stem Cell Fates
SOX9 helps determine stem cell roles by interacting with DNA and proteins that control gene activity.
research The Extracellular Matrix Dictates Regional Competence for Tumor Initiation
The extracellular matrix affects where tumors can start in the body.
research Revising the Role of the Androgen Receptor in Breast Cancer
The document concludes that targeting the androgen receptor may be a promising breast cancer treatment, especially for certain types.

Certain herbal compounds, especially from bitter melon, can inhibit cancer growth and promote hair growth by blocking PAK1.
research Specific Inhibition of FGF5-Induced Cell Proliferation by RNA Aptamers
RNA aptamers can specifically block FGF5-related cell growth, potentially treating related diseases or hair disorders.
research An Accessible Pharmacodynamic Transcriptional Biomarker for Notch Target Engagement
Hair follicle samples effectively show how well the drug MK-0752 targets and engages with the Notch pathway.
research Primary Cicatricial Alopecia and Inflammatory Bowel Disease – Is There a Link?
Some people with primary cicatricial alopecia also have inflammatory bowel disease, suggesting a possible connection.
research Identification of the Cell Lineage at the Origin of Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research The IL-23/IL-17 Pathway in Inflammatory Skin Diseases: From Bench to Bedside
Targeting the IL-23/IL-17 pathway effectively treats several inflammatory skin diseases.
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research Stretching the Limits: From Homeostasis to Stem Cell Plasticity in Wound Healing and Cancer
Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.
research Sex Differences in COVID-19: The Role of Androgens in Disease Severity and Progression
Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.
research The Senescence–Stemness Alliance: A Cancer-Hijacked Regeneration Principle
Cancer can hijack the body's cell repair system to promote tumor growth, and targeting this process may improve cancer treatments.
research Compartmentalized Organization: A Common and Required Feature of Stem Cell Niches?
Compartmentalized organization might be crucial for stem cells to effectively respond to growth or injury.
research Age-Associated Inflammation Connects RAS-Induced Senescence to Stem Cell Dysfunction and Epidermal Malignancy
Older skin has higher cancer risk due to inflammation and stem cell issues.
research Alopecia in Patients Treated with Molecularly Targeted Anticancer Therapies
Targeted cancer therapies have a significant but lower risk of causing hair loss compared to chemotherapy.
