Western blot analysis was used for analyzing the protein levels of loricrin and
involucrin in skin lesions.
Expression of cornification-related molecules including
involucrin, filaggrin, caspase 14 and calcium-sensing receptor was higher in the AH
Unilateral psoriasis: a case individualized by means of
involucrin.
Modulation of keratin 1, 10 and
involucrin expression as part of the complex response of the human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT to ultraviolet radiation," Interdisciplinary Toxicology, vol.
On the other hand, in keratinocytes exposed to arsenic expression of
involucrin was decreased, a similar pattern being previously highlighted in human cSCC [48].
The SC is made up of corneocytes: terminally differentiated keratinocytes, highly cross-linked by transglutaminases with cornified envelope proteins such as loricrin,
involucrin, filaggrin, and small proline-rich proteins.
Involucrin, a strong marker of cell differentiation, has similar localization patterns with hBD-1 and hBD-2 in gingiva.
Immunohisto chemical localization of cytokeratins and
involucrin in calcifying epithelioma: comparative studies with normal skin.
Keratin and
involucrin immunohistochemistry of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
The intermediate filaments are assembled from keratin monomers and the cornified envelope is assembled from a protein called
involucrin and several other proteins.
26) KFAP's also known as intermediate filament associated proteins are composed of filaggrin, tricohyalin, desmosomal proteins and proteins of cornified cell envelope (loricrin,
involucrin and small proline rich proteins).
1,4 Some immunohistochemical markers have been introduced including
Involucrin, CEA and EMA.
