The developmental transcription factor slug is widely expressed in tissues of adult mice.
The Slug transcription factor plays an important role in epithelial-mesenchymal transformation during embryogenesis and is expressed in adult tissues during carcinogenesis. By detecting expression of a Slug-beta-galactosidase fusion protein, we have now demonstrated that Slug is also re-expressed in a variety of normal tissues in the adult mouse. Slug is expressed at relatively high levels in p...
متن کاملStanniocalcin-1 Regulates Re-Epithelialization in Human Keratinocytes
Stanniocalcin-1 (STC1), a glycoprotein hormone, is believed to be involved in various biological processes such as inflammation, oxidative responses and cell migration. Riding on these emerging evidences, we hypothesized that STC1 may participate in the re-epithelialization during wound healing. Re-epithelialization is a critical step that involves keratinocyte lamellipodia (e-lam) formation, f...
متن کاملRe-epithelialization of human oral keratinocytes in vitro.
Re-epithelialization involves interactions between keratinocytes and the extracellular matrix upon which these cells move. It is hypothesized that keratinocytes are activated when wounded, and the resultant phenotypic change directs re-epithelialization. We have adapted organotypic cultures, in which oral gingival keratinocytes are fully differentiated, to study re-epithelialization following w...
متن کاملP-121: Which Developmental Stage is Suitable for Re-vitrification? Compact Stage Re-vitrification or Early Blastocyst Stage Re-vitrification
Background: The aim of this study was evaluation of developmental rate and Bax, Bcl-2 and ErbB4 genes expression following re-vitrification in compact and early blastocysts stages. Materials and Methods: 5-8 cell embryos were collected from female mature mice, 60-62 hours post hCG injection. The embryos were divided to five groups including: fresh, vitrified at 5-8 cells, vitrified at blastocys...
متن کاملVascularization of the dermal support enhances wound re-epithelialization by in situ delivery of epidermal keratinocytes.
Despite significant advances in management of severe wounds such as burns and chronic ulcers, autologous split-thickness skin grafts are still the gold standard of care. The main problems with this approach include pain and discomfort associated with harvesting autologous tissue, limited availability of donor sites, and the need for multiple surgeries. Although tissue engineering has great pote...
