Stem cell patterning and fate in human epidermis
Within human epidermis there are two types of proliferating keratinocyte: stem cells, which have high proliferative potential, and transit-amplifying cells, which are destined to undergo terminal differentiation after a few rounds of division. We show that, in vivo, stem cells express higher levels of the alpha 2 beta 1 and alpha 3 beta 1 integrins than transit-amplifying cells and that this ca...
متن کاملEpidermal cell fate and patterning in leaves.
Cell differentiation requires that undifferentiated cells first be selected before becoming committed to a specific fate. The selection of precursor cells often is coordinated so that mature differentiated cells are distributed in a characteristic pattern. One of the simplest possible patterns in tissues is that in which a minimum distance is maintained between differentiated cells in a two-dim...
متن کاملEpidermal stem cells: markers, patterning and the control of stem cell fate.
Within the epidermis, proliferation takes place in the basal layer of keratinocytes that are attached to an underlying basement membrane. Cells that leave the basal layer undergo terminal differentiation as they move towards the tissue surface. The basal layer contains two types of proliferative keratinocyte: stem cells, which have unlimited self-renewal capacity, and transit amplifying cells, ...
متن کاملRole of melanoma chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan in patterning stem cells in human interfollicular epidermis.
Human interfollicular epidermis is renewed by stem cells that are clustered in the basal layer in a patterned, non-random distribution. Stem cells can be distinguished from other keratinocytes by high expression of beta1 integrins and lack of expression of terminal differentiation markers; they divide infrequently in vivo but form actively growing colonies in culture. In a search for additional...
متن کاملPatterning stem cell differentiation.
Regulation of cell differentiation and assembly remains a fundamental question in developmental biology. Now, a report from the Chen laboratory (Ruiz and Chen, 2008) describes an approach that represents a major step toward a more profound understanding of the geometric-force control of stem cell differentiation.
