homeostasis/metabolism
• areas of hyperproliferating epithelium at wound sites are decreased by more than 30% over 2 to 4 days after injury compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
• during an in vitro wound healing assay, keratinocyte move only 20% of the distance into the gap unlike wild-type cells
|
integument
• keratinocytes exhibit stronger focal adhesions in culture than wild-type cells
|
• during an in vitro wound healing assay, keratinocyte move only 20% of the distance into the gap unlike wild-type cells
• keratinocytes, in culture, exhibit a 60% decrease in average migration speed on fibronectin compared to wild-type cells
• rates of proliferation and apoptosis are normal, and reducing the underlying matrix protein in culture can restore migration speeds to normal
