December 2016 in “Experimental cell research” This study reveals that CSPG4-positive basal cell keratinocytes show distinct global gene expression from CSPG4-negative cells, despite similar colony-forming efficiency.
June 2021 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This article reviews current research on epidermal stem cells and differentiation, presenting models of basal layer composition, but reports no new experimental findings.

September 2019 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” In this study, researchers identified at least four distinct basal stem cell populations in the human interfollicular epidermis, each crucial for maintaining epidermal communication and homeostasis.

February 2007 in “Molecular Carcinogenesis” This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing human ATF3 showed hyperplastic and dysplastic changes in epithelial tissues, with a high incidence of oral cancer, suggesting potential oncogenic properties of ATF3.
December 2025 in “The Journal of Cell Biology” This study found that keratin 15 lacks the ability to sequester YAP1 in keratinocytes effectively, unlike keratin 14, and suggests that a higher K15:K14 ratio may promote a progenitor state and inhibit differentiation in epidermal keratinocytes.
