May 2021 in “Histochemistry and Cell Biology” The May issue discussed publishing agreements and four studies on cholesterol in hair, cancer cell changes, hormones in the uterus, and skin protein effects.
September 2019 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” Certain proteins are significantly increased in the skin of people with hidradenitis suppurativa.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” NDRG1 protein helps infantile hemangioma, a common infant tumor, to grow, and its mismanagement by FOXO1 protein plays a big role in causing the tumor.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” The protein DDX6 helps keep skin cells renewing properly by controlling the production of certain other proteins and breaking down those that cause cells to mature too quickly.
