Differential Expression of a Cutaneous Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone System
11 Nov 2003
Abstract excerpt
We completed the mapping of a cutaneous CRH signaling system in two species with widely different determinants of skin functions, humans and mice. In human skin, the CRH receptor (CRH-R) 1 was expressed in all major cellular populations of epidermis, dermis, and subcutis with CRH-R1alpha being the most prevalent isoform. The CRH-R2 gene was expressed solely in hair follicle keratinocytes and papilla fibroblasts,...
