Abstract excerpt
After an injury, keratinocytes acquire the plasticity necessary for the reepithelialization of the wound. Here, we identify a novel pathway by which a nuclear hormone receptor, until now better known for its metabolic functions, potentiates cell migration. We show that peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta/delta (PPARbeta/delta) enhances two phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-dependent pathways, namely, the...
