,
September 2006 in “PLoS Genetics” This study found that loss of Apc due to K14-cre-mediated gene recombination in mice led to aberrant growth in ectodermally derived squamous epithelia, implicating its critical role in specifying epithelial cell fates during embryonic development.
6 citations
,
April 2012 in “PloS one” This study used transgenic mice to show that disrupting TGF-β signaling in K14+ progenitor cells led to increased stem cell proliferation in the tongue.
November 2022 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that STRIP1 and the STRIPAK complex play a key role in regulating F-actin and cell-cell junctions, which are essential for maintaining the epidermal barrier in mouse skin.
