research Cutaneous Reactions to Targeted Therapies in Children with CNS Tumors: A Cross-Sectional Study
Most children with CNS tumors on targeted therapy had skin reactions, which were generally treatable without stopping the therapy.
research Distinct Expression Profile of Stem Cell Markers, LGR5 and LGR6, in Basaloid Skin Tumors
LGR5 and LGR6 are expressed differently in various skin tumors, which may offer clues about their origins.
research Dermoscopy: Distinguishing Malignant Tumors From Benign
Dermoscopy greatly improves melanoma diagnosis and reduces unneeded surgeries.
research Understanding Cancer Cells of Origin in Cutaneous Tumors
The document concludes that identifying the specific cells where skin cancers begin is important for creating better prevention, detection, and treatment methods.
research Androgens Induce Sebaceous Differentiation in Sebocyte Cells Expressing a Stable Functional Androgen Receptor
Androgens cause oil-producing skin cells with androgen receptors to mature and produce more oil.
research Mommy, Where Do Tumors Come From? The Origins of Basal Cell Carcinomas
Some skin tumors may start from hair follicle stem cells.
research Sox9 Expression in Canine Epithelial Skin Tumors
Sox9 is present in most canine skin tumors and may help understand stem cells' role in these cancers.
research Lgr6+ Stem Cells and Their Progeny in Mouse Epidermis Under Regimens of Exogenous Skin Carcinogenesis, and Their Absence in Ensuing Skin Tumors
UV exposure reduces Lgr6+ stem cells in mouse skin and they don't significantly contribute to skin cancer development.
research TGFβ Signaling Regulates Lipogenesis in Human Sebaceous Gland Cells
TGFβ signaling prevents sebaceous gland cells from producing fats.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Development in Engineered Skin Substitutes
Engineered skin substitutes can grow hair but have limitations like missing sebaceous glands and hair not breaking through the skin naturally.
research Dermoscopy of Scalp Tumors: A Multi-Center Study Conducted by the International Dermoscopy Society
The study concluded that scalp tumors show different patterns based on age, gender, and tumor thickness, and emphasized the importance of early detection and scalp examinations.
research Genetically Modified Laboratory Mice with Sebaceous Glands Abnormalities
Genetic changes in mice help understand skin and hair disorders, aiding treatment development for acne and hair loss.
research Histochemical and Immunohistochemical Markers for Human Eccrine and Apocrine Sweat Glands: An Aid for Histopathologic Differentiation of Sweat Gland Tumors
Markers help differentiate between apocrine and eccrine sweat glands to identify sweat gland tumors.
research Comparative Characterization of Human Meibomian Glands, Free Sebaceous Glands, and Hair-Associated Sebaceous Glands Based on Biomarkers, Analysis of Secretion Composition, and Gland Morphology
Meibomian glands are highly specialized and differ significantly from other sebaceous glands in structure and function.
research Nano-Pulse Stimulation Therapy Is Superior to Cryoablation in Clearing Murine Melanoma Tumors
Nano-Pulse Stimulation™ Therapy is more effective and less damaging than cryoablation for treating melanoma tumors in mice.
research Controversial Concepts in the Classification of Infundibular Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Tricholemmal Carcinoma
The author now believes tricholemmal carcinoma is a rare type of infundibular squamous cell carcinoma and more research is needed on these tumors.
research A Clinicoepidemiological Study of Cutaneous Manifestations in the Geriatric Age Group
The study concluded that the most common skin changes in elderly people are wrinkles and dry skin, with various infections, benign tumors, and changes in nails and hair also being significant.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Cyproterone Acetate: A Genotoxic Carcinogen?
Cyproterone acetate may cause liver cancer at high doses, but is considered safe at recommended doses for approved uses.
research Physiologic Skin Changes in Pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause skin darkening, varicose veins, more sweating, hair growth, hair loss after birth, nail changes, and gum inflammation.
research Hair Follicles, Their Disorders, and Their Opportunities
Hair follicles offer promising targets for delivering drugs to treat hair and skin conditions.
research Expression Pattern of Cyclooxygenase-2 in Normal Rat Epidermis and Pilosebaceous Unit During Hair Cycle
COX-2 levels change during the hair cycle and affect skin and hair growth.
research Spectrum of Pediatric Dermatoses in a Private Medical College
Skin infections and rashes are the most common skin problems in children.
research Rare Diagnosis of a Proliferating Pilar Tumor in a Facial Hairline Cyst
The lump on a woman's scalp was a rare, potentially cancerous tumor from the hair follicle, not a common cyst.
research Cicatricial Alopecia: What's New in Etiology?
Cicatricial alopecia, a permanent hair loss condition, is mainly caused by damage to specific hair follicle stem cells and abnormal immune responses, with gene regulator PPAR-y and lipid metabolism disorders playing significant roles.
research Table of Contents
Understanding drug effects and careful monitoring are crucial for safe and effective dermatology treatments.
research Pharmacological Basis for Clinical Use of Antiandrogens
Cyproterone acetate is used to treat conditions like prostate cancer, early puberty, excessive sexual drive, and female androgenization by affecting androgen functions and suppressing certain hormones.
research A Cell Polarity Protein, aPKCλ, Is Essential for Maintaining Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Hair Follicle Regeneration
The protein aPKCλ is crucial for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive and for hair growth and regeneration.
research Epidermal Homeostasis: A Balancing Act of Stem Cells in the Skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing the skin and hair, using a complex mix of signals to do so.
