The hair follicle is one of the skin appendages that develops through reciprocal epithelial-mesenchymal interactions. Although a large number of studies have been made on the mechanisms of hair follicle development, the whole molecular mechanism that

We screened for genes specifically expressed in the mesenchymes of developing hair follicles using representational differential analysis; one gene identified was MAEG, which encodes a protein consisting of five EGF-like repeats, a linker segment con

Among the five membrane-type matrix metalloproteinases (MT-MMPs), MT1-, MT2-, MT3-, and MT5-MMPs have about a 20-amino acid cytoplasmic tail following the transmembrane domain. In contrast, a putative transmembrane domain of MT4-MMP locates at the ve

Membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP)/MMP-14 is the activator of progelatinase A (proGelA)/proMMP-2 on the cell surface. However, it was a paradox that a tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2), which is an inhibitor of MT1-MMP,

Skin wound healing depends on cell migration and extracellular matrix remodeling. Both processes, which are necessary for reepithelization and restoration of the underlying connective tissue, are believed to involve the action of extracellular protei

The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are extracellular zinc-enzymes implicated in a number of physiological and pathological tissue remodeling processes, including cancer progression. For a long time they have been thought to be produced by malignant

During maturation of hamster oocytes, the distribution of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP3Rs) was found to change dramatically, as observed using confocal microscopy with DiI and electron microscopy for

The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a multi-ligand receptor involved in a diverse range of pathological conditions. To analyze the roles of RAGE and its decoy receptor, endogenous secretory RAGE (esRAGE), in the global cerebral

Exocytosis of cortical granules (CGs) and the concomitant electron density changes of the zona pellucida (ZP) in the absence of sperm penetration were investigated in mouse oocytes processed with tannic acid containing fixation at various stages duri

We used PCR-based cDNA subtraction to screen for genes up-regulated during mouse hair morphogenesis. One gene selected was predominantly expressed at the tip of developing hair follicles and encoded a protein characterized by the presence of twelve t
