Our results demonstrate that expression of three types of ORs, MOR, DOR and KOR, was markedly upregulated in human hypertrophic scars, suggesting a possible link between upregulated ORs and local cacaesthesia in hypertrophic scars.
Our results suggest that ACE may play a role in human epidermis morphogenesis during fetal life and serve as an unrecognized marker for keratinocyte progenitor cells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
