Research Abstract |
Several cytokines, IL-8, PGE2, and IL-33, were induced by mechanical stretching on epidermal keratinocytes. Those induction were inhibited using ERK inhibitors. I suggested that the induction of IL-8, PGE2, and IL-33 by mechanical stretching was depend on ERK signals. Epidermal keratinocytes overexpressed keratin 10, which is differentiated marker, were mechanically stretched. The number of molecules effected by DNA microarray decreased compared with normal keratinocytes. Those results showed that differentiated keratin acquire the resistance against the stimuli of mechanical stretching. And the drugs which induce epidermal differentiation will stop the stimuli of mechanical stretching. I further investigate the skin aging using those results.
