HLA-G: expression in human keratinocytes in vitro and in human skin in vivo [PDF]
Classical, polymorphic major histocompatibility complex class I molecules are expressed on most nucleated cells.They present peptides at the cell surface and, thus, enable the immune system to scan peptides for their antigenicity.

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 ...

Inflammasomes are multimeric protein complexes that assemble upon sensing of a variety of stress factors. Their formation results in caspase-1-mediated activation and secretion of the pro-inflammatory cytokines pro-interleukin(IL)-1β and -18, which ...

CONTRASTING EFFECTS OF AN MDM2 FUNCTIONAL POLYMORPHISM ON TUMOR PHENOTYPES [PDF]
Cancer predisposition by the cooperation of genetic variants, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), may be of much greater significance to public health than previously appreciated.

Immortalized N/TERT keratinocytes as an alternative cell source in 3D human epidermal models
The strong societal urge to reduce the use of experimental animals, and the biological differences between rodent and human skin, have led to the development of alternative models for healthy and diseased human skin.

The interaction between tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-) like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) and fibroblast growth factor-inducible 14 (Fn14) regulates the fate of keratinocytes, depending on the relative expression of TNF receptor (TNFR) 1 or TNFR2 ...

Disruption of Vitamin D and Calcium Signaling in Keratinocytes Predisposes to Skin Cancer. [PDF]
1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)2D), the active metabolite of vitamin D, and calcium regulate epidermal differentiation. 1,25(OH)2D exerts its effects through the vitamin D receptor (VDR), a transcription factor in the nuclear hormone receptor family ...

Keratinocyte Growth Factor Promotes Melanosome Transfer to Keratinocytes [PDF]
Melanogenesis and melanosome transfer from the melanocytes to the neighboring keratinocytes are induced by ultraviolet radiation and modulated by autocrine and paracrine factors. Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF/fibroblast growth factor (FGF)7) is a paracrine mediator of human keratinocyte growth and differentiation. We evaluated the influence of KGF on

Reflectance confocal microscopy for the diagnosis of skin infections and infestations [PDF]
Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a noninvasive real-time imaging technique that has been widely used for the diagnosis of skin cancer. More recently, it has been reported as a useful tool for the diagnosis and management of several inflammatory ...
