α6 integrin and CD44 enrich for a primary keratinocyte population that displays resistance to UV-induced apoptosis
Epidermal human keratinocytes are exposed to a wide range of environmental genotoxic insults, including the UV component of solar radiation. Epidermal homeostasis in response to cellular or tissue damage is maintained by a population of keratinocyte stem cells (KSC) that reside in the basal layer of...
