Nickel Nanoparticles Induce the Synthesis of a Tumor-Related Polypeptide in Human Epidermal Keratinocytes

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
Although nickel allergy and carcinogenicity are well known, their molecular mechanisms are still uncertain, thus demanding studies at the molecular level.

Transcriptional Network of p63 in Human Keratinocytes

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
p63 is a transcription factor required for the development and maintenance of ectodermal tissues in general, and skin keratinocytes in particular. The identification of its target genes is fundamental for understanding the complex network of gene regulation governing the development of epithelia.

EpCAM Induction Functionally Links to the Wnt-Enhanced Cell Proliferation in Human Keratinocytes

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2014
Accelerating proliferation of primary keratinocytes benefits skin autografts for severely burned patients. Wnt signal, a conserved pathway controlling cell cycle and morphogenesis in embryo, also involves in cell proliferation and tumorigenesis in adult ...

Use of in vitro human keratinocyte models to study the effect of cooling on chemotherapy drug-induced cytotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A highly distressing side-effect of cancer chemotherapy is chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA). Scalp cooling remains the only treatment for CIA, yet there is no experimental evidence to support the cytoprotective capacity of cooling. We have established

Human beta-defensin 3 is up-regulated in cutaneous leprosy type 1 reactions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: Leprosy, a chronic granulomatous disease affecting the skin and nerves, is caused by Mycobacterium leprae (M. leprae). The type of leprosy developed depends upon the host immune response.

IL-27 regulates IL-18 binding protein in skin resident cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
IL-18 is an important mediator involved in chronic inflammatory conditions such as cutaneous lupus erythematosus, psoriasis and chronic eczema. An imbalance between IL-18 and its endogenous antagonist IL-18 binding protein (BP) may account for increased ...

Human Basal and Suprabasal Keratinocytes Are Both Able to Generate and Maintain Dermo–Epidermal Skin Substitutes in Long-Term In Vivo Experiments

open access: yesCells, 2022
The basal layer of human interfollicular epidermis has been described to harbour both quiescent keratinocyte stem cells and a transit amplifying cell population that maintains the suprabasal epidermal layers.

Vitamin D analogs differentially control antimicrobial peptide/"alarmin" expression in psoriasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are strongly expressed in lesional skin in psoriasis and play an important role as proinflammatory "alarmins" in this chronic skin disease.

Protective Effects of Violaxanthin on Cellular Oxidative Stress via NRF2 Activation in H2O2-Stimulated Human Keratinocytes

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species from exogenous and endogenous stressors can cause cellular damage. Chlorella contains diverse bioactive compounds, and violaxanthin, a major carotenoid pigment found in Chlorella sp.
