Reply: Current Basal and Squamous Cell Skin Cancer Management

Here, we describe protocols for acquiring good-quality images using novel, noninvasive imaging devices of reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) and combined RCM and optical coherence tomography (OCT). We also familiarize clinicians with their clinical applications so that they can integrate the techniques into regular clinical workflows to improve patient...

Evaluated in syngeneic immunocompetent hosts, cancer stem cell (CSC) based dendritic cell (DC) vaccine demonstrated significantly higher antitumor immunity than traditional DC vaccines pulsed with heterogeneous bulk tumor...

This protocol describes a useful tool for identifying significant molecular changes in cancer and leads to the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for esophageal squamous cell...

This protocol describes the key steps to generate and characterize murine oral-esophageal 3D organoids that represent normal, preneoplastic, and squamous cell carcinoma lesions induced via chemical...

Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

Perineural invasion (PNI) is a common feature of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), conferring lower survival rates. Its mechanisms are poorly understood. Utilizing neurites generated from murine dorsal root ganglia confined to a semisolid matrix, the pathways involved in the PNI of HNSCC cell lines can be...
