Keloids: a review

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology
J C MurrayS R Pinnell

Abstract

Keloids are predominantly fibrous tumors which appear as firm, variably pruritic or tender growths near a site of injury. Usually appearing between the ages of 10 and 30, most keloids are located on the upper back, shoulders, earlobes, and anterior portion of the chest. The etiology remains unknown, but the accumulated fibrous tissue is associated with increased cellularity and increased metabolic activity of keloid fibroblasts. Isolated keloid fibroblasts demonstrate normal growth characteristics along with increased collagen and proteoglycan synthesis. Numerous keloid treatments have been attempted, but variable success has followed either single use or combinations of intralesional corticosteroid injection, surgery, pressure devices, radiation, cryosurgery, and systemic chemotherapy.

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.
