Attenuated kallikrein‐related peptidase activity disrupts desquamation and leads to stratum corneum thickening in human skin equivalent models
Abstract
Epidermal homeostasis is maintained through the balance between keratinocyte proliferation, differentiation and desquamation; however, human skin equivalent (HSE) models are known to differentiate excessively. In native tissue, proteases such as kallikrein‐related peptidase (KLK) 5 and KLK7 cleave the extracellular components of corneodesmosomes; proteins corneodesmosin, desmocollin 1 and desmoglein 1, loosening the cellular connections and...
