الوصف: | Plasminogen activation is observed in the human epidermis during re-epithelialization of epidermal defects. The activation reaction depends on plasminogen activators (PAs) associated with re-epithelializing keratinocytes. PA inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2) is thought to be a major epidermal PA inhibitor in keratinocytes. However, no data are available on the expression of PAI-2 in keratinocytes during epidermal regeneration. We have therefore analysed PAI-2 at the mRNA and protein level in keratinocyte cultures as well as in epidermal lesions in which re-epithelializing keratinocytes were apparent. We found that PAI-2 expression at the mRNA and protein level was negatively correlated with the cell density in regular keratinocyte cultures. In organotypic cocultures, in which the transition from a re-epithelializing to a sedentary phenotype can be studied, PAI-2 was most strongly expressed in early cultures prior to formation of a differentiated epidermis-like structure. We found a strong expression of PAI-2 in keratinocytes that re-epithelialized dermal burn wounds or lesions caused by the autoimmune blistering disease pemphigus vulgaris. Our results suggest that not only PAs, but also a major PA inhibitor, PAI-2, are expressed in keratinocytes that are actively involved in re-epithelialization. |
