Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the second most common cutaneous non-melanoma cancer in Mexico, accounting for 20% of all skin cancers. It is considered a global public health concern due to the rising incidence and prevalence, which is associated with an aging population. Treatment for cSCC depends on the severity of the disease, which determines different therapeutic approaches. Reconstructive surgery, as a treatment option, has seen significant advancements over the years, offering new opportunities to improve the quality of life for cSCC patients. Modern surgical techniques require both an aesthetic focus and effective reconstruction to meet the desires and expectations of patients. We present the case of a patient with long-standing SCC located in a facial area that is difficult to access for surgical resection and reconstruction, presenting a therapeutic challenge while achieving an aesthetically harmonious scar.

To investigate CHD1L's impacts and molecular processes in hypoxic cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. Monoclonal proliferation assays and CCK-8 were used to detect the proliferation capacity of A431 cells and Colon16 cells; wound healing experiments and Transwell assays were used to examine the migration and invasion capacity of A431 cells and Colon16 cells; angiogenesis experiments were conducted to assess the influence of A431 cells on angiogenesis; a nude mouse tumor xenograft experiment and HE staining were utilized to evaluate the impact of CHD1L on the progression of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma; western blot analysis was performed to detect the expression of p-PI3K, p-AKT, and PD-L1 in A431 cells, as well as CD9, TSG101, PD-L1 in exosomes, and CD206, Arginase-1, iNOS, IL-1β, p-AKT, p-mTOR, VEGF, COX-2, MMP2, MMP9, p-ERK1/2 in tumor-associated macrophages. Under hypoxic conditions, CHD1L promoted the proliferation, migration, invasion, and angiogenesis of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma.

Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) in dogs is a locally invasive tumor that typically occurs in areas of poorly pigmented skin due to sun exposure. Identifying new biomarkers, such as syndecan-1 (CD138) and E-cadherin, is fundamental for tumor diagnosis and prognosis. Dysregulation of syndecan-1, expressed in epithelial tissue, fibroblasts, and plasma cells, is associated with poor prognosis in several types of cancer.

The rapid aging of the population has led to an increase in the number of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) cases among the older population. However, the characteristics of these cases remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to identify the problem by analyzing the clinical characteristics of patients with cSCC aged 90 years and over.

Background: Chronic skin ulcers are a risk factor for the development of skin tumors. In patients with diabetes, chronic refractory ulcers may also contribute to higher susceptibility to skin tumors. Timely surgical removal of chronic and nonhealing diabetic foot ulcers can effectively prevent progression to squamous cell carcinoma.

Dysregulated miRNA expression contributes to development of arsenic-induced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). hsa-miR-186 (miR-186) is overexpressed in arsenical cSCC tissues as well as in preclinical cell line model of arsenical cSCC. Simultaneous miR-186 overexpression and chronic inorganic trivalent arsenite (iAs; 100 nM) exposure transformed human HaCaT cell line preferentially over miR-186 overexpression or iAs exposure alone.
