October 2021 in “Cellular & Molecular Biology Letters” This study utilized RNA sequencing to analyze gene expression in primary murine keratinocytes and fibroblasts, identifying 4,309 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the two cell types, with 2,197 genes highly expressed in fibroblasts and 2,112 in keratinocytes. The research highlighted specific genes such as collagen, transcription factors, and growth factors, which play roles in skin elasticity, wound healing, cell differentiation, and immune response regulation. Novel biomarkers like Plac8 and Agtr2 for fibroblasts, and Ly6a and Col18a1 for keratinocytes, were identified, offering potential therapeutic targets for skin-related diseases such as burns, wounds, and aging. The study involved eight newborn male mice and provided a valuable resource for further research on treating skin disorders.
