Differentiation of human epidermal keratinocytes is accompanied by increased expression of CRABP-II and increased cellular concentration of retinoic acids: retention of newly synthesized retinoic acids by CRABP-II
Keratinocytes differentiating in vitro exhibit greater cytosolic capacity for retinoic acid synthesis from retinol or retinaldehyde as compared to nondifferentiated cells (Siegenthaler et al. 1990. Biochem. J. 268: 371–378), and increased expression of CRABP-II (Siegenthaler et al. 1988. Exp. Cell R...
