Abstract excerpt
Although it is known that growth factor signaling cascades are active during epithelial wound healing, signals that regulate reepithelialization after wounding are not very well characterized. The small GTP binding protein Ras is a molecular switch involved in the regulation of signals originating from different growth factor receptors. We have investigated consequences of its activation in primary human...
