The Human Microbiota and Skin Cancer
Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the US with an increasing prevalence worldwide. While ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a well-known risk factor, there is emerging evidence that the microbiota may also contribute.

Sirtuins in Skin and Skin Cancers [PDF]
The sirtuins are a family of proteins that comprise class III of the histone deacetylases. These NAD+-dependent proteins have been found to be intricately involved in a variety of important and skin-relevant cellular functions and processes, including aging, UV damage response, oxidative stress, and wound repair.

BET inhibitors synergize with sunitinib in melanoma through GDF15 suppression
Cancer: a drug combination for combating melanoma Drugs that target proteins involved in issuing stop and start commands to cancer-related genes help to sensitize melanoma cells to a widely used anti-cancer therapy, leading to tumor shrinkage in mice ...

The UQ Flap: A Novel Modification of the Keystone Flap
Summary:. Wound closure following excisions on the leg (between the knee and ankle), including the distal leg, is challenged by limited skin laxity. The keystone flap, first described by Behan in 2003, was proposed as one solution, but with a significant

Assessing the Generalizability of Deep Neural Networks-Based Models for Black Skin Lesions [PDF]
Melanoma is the most severe type of skin cancer due to its ability to cause metastasis. It is more common in black people, often affecting acral regions: palms, soles, and nails. Deep neural networks have shown tremendous potential for improving clinical care and skin cancer diagnosis.
