Isolation of All CD44 Transcripts in Human Epidermis and Regulation of Their Expression by Various Agents.

CD44, a cell surface proteoglycan, is involved in many biological events. CD44 transcripts undergo complex alternative splicing, resulting in many functionally distinct isoforms. To date, however, the nature of these isoforms in human epidermis has not been adequately determined. In this study, we i...
