Abstract:
The major structural proteins of epithelia, the keratins, and the keratin filament-associated protein, filaggrin, were analyzed in more than 50 samples of human embryonic and fetal skin by one-dimensional SDS PAGE and immunoblotting with monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies. Companion samples were examined by immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy. Based on structural characteristics of the epidermis, four periods of human epidermal development were identified. The first is the embryonic period (before 9 wk estimated gestational age), and the others are within the fetal period: stratific

Abstract:
During terminal differentiation of vertebrate epidermis, certain specific keratin intermediate filament (KIF) proteins are produced. Keratinization of the epidermis involves cell death and disruption of the cytoplasm, leaving a network of KIF embedded in an amorphous matrix which forms the outer horny layer known as the stratum corneum. Eventually these cells are shed (desquamation). Normally, the processes of differentiation, keratinization, and desquamation are regulated in an orderly manner. In psoriasis, a chronic skin disease, a hyperkeratotic stratum corneum is produced, resulting in abn

Abstract:
Laminitis is a major cause of lameness in dairy cattle, and is widely attributed to a defect in the horny tissue that gives the hoof its mechanical strength. Defective horn is associated with, and may be preceded by, impaired keratin deposition in the hoof epidermis. The cause of abnormal keratin deposition is not easily identified but, like epidermal keratinization in other tissues, is likely to be controlled by hormones and the paracrine action of locally produced growth factors. The hormonal regulation of keratin synthesis and cell proliferation in the bovine hoof was studied using tissue e

Abstract:
Mammalian hard α-keratins are fibre-reinforced biomaterials that consist of 10 nm intermediate filaments (IFs) embedded in an elastomeric protein matrix. Recent work suggests that the mechanical properties of IFs are highly sensitive to hydration, whereas hard α-keratins such as wool, hair and nail are relatively hydration insensitive. This raises the question of how mammalian keratins remain stiff in water. The matrix squeeze hypothesis states that the IFs in hard α-keratins are stiffened during an air-drying step during keratinization, and subsequently locked into a dehydrated state via the

Injury to epidermis and other stratified epithelia triggers profound but transient changes in the pattern of keratin expression. In postmitotic cells located at the wound edge, a strong induction of K6, K16, and K17 synthesis occurs at the expense of the keratins produced under the normal situation. The functional significance of these alterations in keratin expression is not known.

Abstract:
1. A thermal clearance probe was used to measure fingertip blood flow. When flow was occluded the baseline value was reproducible (coefficient of variation 2% between subjects), whereas basal and maximum flow were poorly reproducible even within subjects. 2. Synchronous changes in thermal clearance were seen when two probes were used on fingers and toes of different limbs (r = 0.77–0.97), in keeping with a central control mechanism. 3. Fingertip blood flow, as measured by thermal clearance, correlated with Po2 of venous blood draining from the dorsum of the hand (r = 0.72–0.92). 4. Contralater

Abstract:
Vaginal biopsies and smears were collected from ten adult local healthy goats. Routine histological methods were carried out on vaginal biopsies and then stained with PAS stain. The smears were stained with Methylene blue. All samples were inspected under light microscope. The present study found that many constituents of the wall of the vagina, which have an important functional role, were absent; among these were the vaginal glands, goblet cells, muscularis mucosa, and lymphatic nodules. On the other hand, vagina showed special compensatory histological mechanisms, namely, the deep epithelia

The most effective treatment for paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis is treatment of the primary malignancy.

Abstract:
Keratins are the major proteins synthesized by keratinocytes. They consist of a group of 10–20 different polypeptides in the molecular weight range of 48,000–67,000. Keratins associate in cells to form intermediate filaments, the major network of the keratinocyte cytoskeletal architecture. Keratins are produced in cells in a specific, sequential manner during epidermal stratification and the formation of the stratum corneum. Tumor promotion in mouse skin is associated with epidermal hyperplasia and aberrant cellular differentiation. This is accompanied by alterations in normal patterns of kera

However, the commercial use of A. yomena extract requires a long processing time with specific processing steps (including heat treatment and ethanol precipitation), and there are various environmental problems. We aimed to build a system to produce A. yomena extract by culturing the callus in a bioreactor that can allow rapid process scale-up to test the effect of extract (AYC-CS-E) isolated from culture supernatant of A. yomena callus on photoaging of human keratinocytes (HaCaT) caused

AbstractThe rôle of various classes of nutrients (energy substrates, vitamins, minerals, amino acids) in the production of wool and hair from follicles, is considered for a variety of animal species. The wool and hair follicle have evolved a number of interesting features of carbohydrate metabolism including glutaminolysis, aerobic glycolysis, significant activity of the pentose phosphate pathway, and storage and mobilisation of glycogen. Presumably the necessity to continue to produce fibre despite fluctuations in the supply of oxygen and nutrients has resulted in some of these unique feature

Abstract:
In contrast to mouse epidermal cells, human skin keratinocytes are rather resistant to transformation in vitro. Immortalization has been achieved by SV40 but has resulted in cell lines with altered differentiation. We have established a spontaneously transformed human epithelial cell line from adult skin, which maintains full epidermal differentiation capacity. This HaCaT cell line is obviously immortal (greater than 140 passages), has a transformed phenotype in vitro (clonogenic on plastic and in agar) but remains nontumorigenic. Despite the altered and unlimited growth potential, HaCaT cells

Forty-one hard keratin-producing tumors, including 26 hair matrix tumors (20 pilomatrixomas and 6 pilomatrix carcinomas) and 15 odontogenic tumors (adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas), were compared to 15 endometrioid carcinomas with MorM with or without sq
