Agache's Measuring the Skin

Abstract

The epidermis is characterised by its self-ability to maintain its homeostasis through a controlled balance between keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation events. Therefore, the specific detection of proliferation- and differentiation markers allowing the discrimination between these epidermal activities is of great interest. Proliferation markers are numerous and the most frequently used, including nuclear and cytoplasmic markers, are described in this chapter. From the use of tritiated thymidine and BrdU to the detection of PCNA, histones, Ki67 and keratins, all approaches are described with their technological procedures. Markers of the different steps of epidermal differentiation markers such as keratins, filaggrin, involucrin and loricrin are then listed including stained skin images, antibodies references, methods of use and suppliers.

There are many suppliers of antibodies, and the number of available antibodies (immunohistology, cytometry, etc.) regularly increases. Some suppliers seek worldwide for a specific product if wanted by the customer.

Ask for the technical bulletin of each product. This indicates the recommended method (histology, electrophoresis, cytometry, etc.) and conditions of use (fixation, congelation, treatment, etc.). Dilutions are just indicative and must be evaluated for each tissue and protocol.

Immunohistological studies are performed according to standard methodologies, with or without amplification or treatment. Many kits are actually available.
