The expression of microRNA‐203 during human skin morphogenesis
Open accessAbstract
Please cite this paper as: The expression of microRNA‐203 during human skin morphogenesis. Experimental Dermatology 2010; 19: 854–856. Abstract: MicroRNAs are small, non‐coding RNAs that regulate gene expression post‐transcriptionally and play important roles in various biological processes. We previously identified miR‐203 as a skin‐ and keratinocyte‐specific microRNA. Moreover, miR‐203 has been implicated in repressing ‘stemness’ in epidermal progenitors. Here, we investigate the expression of miR‐203 and two of its targets, p63 and suppressor of cytokine signalling‐3, during human skin morphogenesis. MiR‐203 in situ hybridization was performed on sections of human foetal skin ranging from 14 to 22 weeks’ gestation and adult skin. MiR‐203 was barely detectable at 14 weeks. Its expression became prominent from week 17 and was most pronounced in the suprabasal layers of the epidermis, while p63 and SOCS‐3 were preferentially expressed in the basal layer. Differentiation markers such as involucrin and filaggrin were expressed mainly in the suprabasal layers of epidermis, similar to miR‐203. Our results support the involvement of miR‐203 in skin morphogenesis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
