Yamamoto Y, Uede K, Yonei N, Furukawa F: Expression patterns of proliferating cell nuclear antigen in trichloroacetic acid peeled skin. J Dermatol. 2007 Feb;34(2):95-8. This study was designed to investigate whether trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peeling induces cellular proliferation in human skin using an immunohistochemical method. A 40% TCA peel resulted in a greater number of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)-immunopositive cells in the whole epidermis as compared with 60% TCA or phenol peels. This finding suggests that long-term and frequent TCA peelings of low concentration would require special attention for unexpected cutaneous lesions such as skin tumors. |
