Role for WNT16B in human epidermal keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation.
WNT signalling regulates a variety of cell functions including cell fate, polarity, and differentiation via the canonical or beta-catenin stabilisation pathway and/or the planar cell polarity or non-canonical pathway. We have previously demonstrated that two isoforms (A and B) from the WNT16 locus have differential expression in various adult human tissues. In this study we show that WNT16B but...
متن کاملThe hSkn-1a POU transcription factor enhances epidermal stratification by promoting keratinocyte proliferation.
Skn-1a is a POU transcription factor that is primarily expressed in the epidermis and is known to modulate the expression of several genes associated with keratinocyte differentiation. However, the formation of a stratified epidermis requires a carefully controlled balance between keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation, and a role for Skn-1a in this process has not been previously demon...
متن کاملSelective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition does not alter keratinocyte wound responses in the mouse epidermis after abrasion.
The cyclooxygenase isoforms, COX-1 and COX-2, are the rate limiting enzymes in the biosynthesis of prostaglandin E(2), a major prostaglandin involved in epidermal homeostasis and repair. Epidermal injury results in transient hyperplasia and induction of COX-2 expression. The role of COX-2 in this hyperplasia is unknown, however. In this study, we characterized the epidermal expression of COX is...
متن کاملKeratinocyte Differentiation Is Regulated by the Rho and ROCK Signaling Pathway
The epidermis comprises multiple layers of specialized epithelial cells called keratinocytes. As cells are lost from the outermost epidermal layers, they are replaced through terminal differentiation, in which keratinocytes of the basal layer cease proliferating, migrate upwards, and eventually reach the outermost cornified layers. Normal homeostasis of the epidermis requires that the balance b...
متن کاملUniversity of Birmingham Distinct Roles for ROCK1 and ROCK2 in the Regulation of Keratinocyte Differentiation
Background: The human epidermis is comprised of several layers of specialized epithelial cells called keratinocytes. Normal homoeostasis of the epidermis requires that the balance between keratinocyte proliferation and terminal differentiation be tightly regulated. The mammalian serine/threonine kinases (ROCK1 and ROCK2) are well-characterised downstream effectors of the small GTPase RhoA. We h...
