gene expression

Comparison of gene expression profiles in human keratinocyte mono-layer cultures, reconstituted epidermis and normal human skin; transcriptional effects of retinoid treatments in reconstituted human epidermis

, ,
In order to validate a model for predictive screening of dermatological drugs, we used a customized cDNA macro-array system containing 475 skin-related genes to analyze the gene expression patterns in human keratinocytes from different origins.
phototoxicity

Development of a highly sensitive in vitro phototoxicity assay using the SkinEthic reconstructed human epidermis

The reconstituted human epidermis model SkinEthic was used to evaluate the phototoxicity of topically applied chemicals.
