The RATIOnal Role of Polyamines in Epidermal Differentiation

[摘要] Polyamines have been implicated in skin tumorigenesis; however, their role in epidermal homeostasis remains obscure. In a new article in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, Rahim et al.

Results suggest that targeting polyamine availability might be useful in the treatment of hyperproliferative skin disorders.
