Farnesol stimulates differentiation in epidermal keratinocytes via PPARalpha

The isoprenoids farnesol and juvenile hormone III (JH), metabolites of the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway, have been shown to stimulate fetal epidermal development in rodents. In this study we determined whether this effect might be attributed to a direc ...

Different stability of AP1 proteins in human keratinocyte and fibroblast cells: possible role in the cell-type specific expression of human papillomavirus type 18 genes

Peter Martin Beard

Human papillomaviruses (HPV) replicate in keratinocyte but not fibroblast cells. Several factors, including AP1 (Jun/Fos), contribute to the cell-type specific transcription of HPV genes. The binding of AP1 upstream of the HPV type 18 early gene E6 is esse ...

A member of the activator protein 1 family found in keratinocytes but not in fibroblasts required for transcription from a human papillomavirus type 18 promoter

Peter Martin Beard

Papillomaviruses are tissue specific and replicate in differentiating keratinocytes. We are interested in the question of tissue specificity at the level of transcription. We used extracts from human keratinocytes and human fibroblasts at low passage numbe ...
