The specificity and patterns of staining in human cells and tissues of p16INK4a antibodies demonstrate variant antigen binding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The validity of the identification and classification of human cancer using antibodies to detect biomarker proteins depends upon antibody specificity. Antibodies that bind to the tumour-suppressor protein p16INK4a are widely used for cancer diagnosis and

Convenient methodology for extraction and subsequent selective propagation of mouse melanocytes in culture from adult mouse skin tissue

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2019
Mouse melanoma B16-BL6 cells are useful cells for cancer metastatic studies. To understand the metastatic principle at molecular levels, it is necessary to carry out experiments in which cancer cells and their normal counterparts are compared.

Biology of melanocytes in mammals

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Melanocytes, which originate from the neuroectoderm, are specialized cells responsible for producing pigments and possessing a dendritic morphology. These cells migrate to the epidermis and follicles, contributing to skin and hair pigmentation during ...

Number of keratinocytes and melanocytes in cell suspensions obtained from partial-thickness epidermal cuts and suction blister roofs for vitiligo treatment: a prospective randomized comparative study

open access: yesJournal of the Egyptian Women’s Dermatologic Society, 2020
Background Treatment of vitiligo not responding to conventional therapies involves the replacement of the absent melanocytes by surgical maneuvers, including minigrafting and cultured and noncultured cell suspension grafting.

P-Cadherin Is Expressed by Epithelial Progenitor Cells and Melanocytes in the Human Corneal Limbus

open access: yesCells, 2022
Interactions between limbal epithelial progenitor cells (LEPC) and surrounding niche cells, which include limbal mesenchymal stromal cells (LMSC) and melanocytes (LM), are essential for the maintenance of the limbal stem cell niche required for a ...

Instructive role of melanocytes during pigment pattern formation of the avian skin

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Periodic pigment patterns, such as spots and stripes, are often observed in animal skin; however, we should learn more the molecular and cellular mechanisms for patterning. Here, we examined the black and yellow stripes in the Japanese quail

Ultraviolet B irradiation enhances the secretion of exosomes by human primary melanocytes and changes their exosomal miRNA profile.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
OBJECTIVE:Melanocytes play a central role in skin homeostasis. In this study, we focus on the function of melanocyte releasing exosomes as well as exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) and investigate whether ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation exerts an impact on it.

HGF/c-MET Signaling in Melanocytes and Melanoma

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018
Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/ mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (c-MET) signaling is involved in complex cellular programs that are important for embryonic development and tissue regeneration, but its activity is also utilized by cancer cells ...
