Acute wounding alters the beta2-adrenergic signaling and catecholamine synthetic pathways in keratinocytes.
Published in Journal of Investigative Dermatology
Keratinocyte migration is critical for wound re-epithelialization. Previous studies showed that epinephrine activates the beta2-adrenergic receptor (B2AR), impairing keratinocyte migration. Here, we investigated the keratinocyte catecholamine synthetic pathway in response to acute trauma. Cultured keratinocytes were scratch wounded and expression l...
