Human keratinocytes are vanilloid resistant. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
BACKGROUND: Use of capsaicin or resiniferatoxin (RTX) as analgesics is an attractive therapeutic option. RTX opens the cation channel inflammatory pain/vanilloid receptor type 1 (TRPV1) permanently and selectively removes nociceptive neurons by Ca(2 ...

Bioelectric characterization of senescing human keratinocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Aging, a ubiquitous process that affects almost all multicellular organisms, is accompanied by the accumulation of senescent cells, leading to a decline of morphology and function. The ‘loss of morphostatic information’ theory posits that aging occurs due to gradual breakdown of order initially established during embryo development. Spatial differences

Protective Effect of Pomegranate on Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Response Induced by 5-Fluorouracil in Human Keratinocytes

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2021
5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is a pyrimidine analogue used as an antineoplastic agent to treat multiple solid tumors. Despite its use and efficacy, it also has important side effects in healthy cells, including skin reactions, related to its pro-oxidant and pro-

Retinoic acid induces hyaluronic acid production through the klotho-mediated EGFR signaling pathway in human epidermal keratinocytes [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2022
All-trans retinoic acid (RA) is an effective anti-aging chemical substance widely used in skin-care products. RA compromises epidermal differentiation and induces keratinocyte proliferation, causing hyaluronic acid production through mechanisms that are ...

Expression of Retinal G Protein-Coupled Receptor, a Member of the Opsin Family, in Human Skin Cells and Its Mediation of the Cellular Functions of Keratinocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Background: Photoreceptive proteins play critical physiological roles in human skin cells. The retinal G protein-coupled receptor (RGR) is a photoisomerase in the human retina, but its expression and cellular functions in human skin cells have not been ...

Transport of Biotin in Human Keratinocytes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 2003
Biotin is an essential micronutrient for normal cellular function, growth, and development. Biotin deficiency leads to pathologic, dermatologic, and neurocutaneous manifestations in skin and its appendages. Previous studies described the presence of specific biotin transport systems in the epithelia of the intestine, liver, kidney, and placenta, and in

Remifentanil protects human keratinocytes against hypoxia-reoxygenation injury through activation of autophagy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The proliferation, differentiation, and migration of keratinocytes are essential in the early stages of wound healing. Hypoxia-Reoxygenation (H/R) injury to keratinocytes can occur in various stressful environments such as surgery, trauma, and various ...
