Abstract excerpt

Normal human keratinocytes (NHK) in submerged culture were used to assess mechanisms associated with in vitro exposure to known stimulators (sodium butyrate; NaB) and inhibitors (fibronectin; FN) of NHK maturation. A multiparameter approach was used to define cell types generated under a range of...
