Polyhexamethylene Biguanide and Nadifloxacin Self-Assembled Nanoparticles: Antimicrobial Effects against Intracellular Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
The treatment of skin and soft tissue infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) remains a challenge, partly due to localization of the bacteria inside the host’s cells, where antimicrobial penetration and efficacy is limited.

Transcriptional landscape of epithelial and immune cell populations revealed through FACS-seq of healthy human skin. [PDF]
Human skin consists of multiple cell types, including epithelial, immune, and stromal cells. Transcriptomic analyses have previously been performed from bulk skin samples or from epithelial and immune cells expanded in cell culture.

Fos co-operation with PTEN loss elicits keratoacanthoma not carcinoma due to p53/p21WAF-induced differentiation triggered by GSK3b inactivation and reduced AKT activity [PDF]
To investigate gene synergism in multistage skin carcinogenesis, the RU486-inducible cre/lox system was employed to ablate PTEN function [K14.cre/D5PTENflx] in mouse epidermis expressing activated v-fos [HK1.fos].

Sensing of endogenous nucleic acids by ZBP1 induces keratinocyte necroptosis and skin inflammation [PDF]
Aberrant detection of endogenous nucleic acids by the immune system can cause inflammatory disease. The scaffold function of the signaling kinase RIPK1 limits spontaneous activation of the nucleic acid sensor ZBP1.

Living with Keratinocytes [PDF]
A feature distinguishing human hematopoietic and epithelial stem cells from other equally fascinating stem cells is perhaps their easier translation into a clinical setting. We have devoted nearly our entire scientific career in trying to turn our understanding of epithelial stem cell biology into something that could help people suffering from ...

ROCK2/rasHa cooperation induce malignant conversion via p53 loss, elevated NF-κβ and tenascin C-associated rigidity but p21 inhibits ROCK2/NF-κβ-mediated progression [PDF]
To study ROCK2 activation in carcinogenesis, mice expressing 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4HT)- activated ROCK2 [K14.ROCKer] were crossed to mice expressing epidermal activated ras Ha [HK1.ras1205].
