Insulin‐like growth factor‐1 receptor regulates repair of ultraviolet B‐induced DNA damage in human keratinocytes <i>in vivo</i>
16 Jun 2016
Abstract excerpt
The activation status of the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) regulates the cellular response of keratinocytes to ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure, both in vitro and in vivo. Geriatric skin is deficient in IGF-1 expression resulting in an aberrant IGF-1R-dependent UVB response which contributes to the development of aging-associated squamous cell carcinoma. Furthermore, our lab and others have reported...
