Langerhans Cells—Programmed by the Epidermis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Langerhans cells (LCs) reside in the epidermis as a dense network of immune system sentinels. These cells determine the appropriate adaptive immune response (inflammation or tolerance) by interpreting the microenvironmental context in which they ...

Dynamic changes in connexin expression correlate with key events in the wound healing process. [PDF]

, 2003
Wound healing is a complex process requiring communication for the precise co-ordination of different cell types. The role of extracellular communication through growth factors in the wound healing process has been extensively documented, but the role of

Photoablation at single cell resolution and its application in the Drosophila epidermis and peripheral nervous system

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
Tissues contain diverse cell populations that, together, make up physiologically functional units. A remarkable example is the animal epidermis, where neuronal and non-neuronal cells intermingle to allow somatosensory perception.

Advancement through epidermis using tape stripping technique and Reflectance Confocal Microscopy

Scientific Reports, 2019
The tape stripping technique is increasingly used in research regarding skin barrier function. However, number of tape strips varies between studies, and literature considering advancement into stratum corneum/epidermis in relation to number of tape ...

GJB4 variants linked to skin disease exhibit a trafficking deficiency en route to gap junction formation that can be restored by co-expression of select connexins

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Epidermal keratinocytes are enriched with at least nine connexins that are key regulators of epidermal homeostasis. The role of Cx30.3 in keratinocytes and epidermal health became evident when fourteen autosomal dominant mutations in the Cx30.3-encoding ...

Type XVII collagen coordinates proliferation in the interfollicular epidermis

eLife, 2017
Type XVII collagen (COL17) is a transmembrane protein located at the epidermal basement membrane zone. COL17 deficiency results in premature hair aging phenotypes and in junctional epidermolysis bullosa.

Real-time imaging of pulvinus bending in Mimosa pudica [PDF]

, 2019
Mimosa pudica is a plant that rapidly shrinks its body in response to external stimuli. M. pudica does not perform merely simple movements, but exhibits a variety of movements that quickly change depending on the type of stimuli.

Acceleration of Skin Wound-Healing Reactions by Autologous Micrograft Tissue Suspension

Medicina, 2020
Background and objectives: Skin grafting is a method usually used in reconstructive surgery to accelerate skin regeneration. This method results frequently in unexpected scar formations. We previously showed that cutaneous wound-healing in normal mice is

The Biology of Varicella-Zoster Virus Replication in the Skin

Viruses, 2022
The replication of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in skin is critical to its pathogenesis and spread. Primary infection causes chickenpox, which is characterised by centrally distributed skin blistering lesions that are rich in infectious virus.
