## Abstract In this study we examined the different aspects of the pathway leading to the differentiation of keratinocytes as a function of time in culture and calcium concentration of the culture medium. Human neonatal foreskin keratinocytes were grown in a serumβfree, defined medium containing 0.

Human keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) is an epithelial cell specific mitogen which is secreted by normal stromal fibroblasts. In the present studies, we demonstrate that KGF is as potent as EGF in stimulating proliferation of primary or secondary human keratinocytes in tissue culture. Exposure of K
The production of fibronectin, laminin and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) has been investigated in normal and SV40-transformed human epidermal keratinocytes. Normal keratinocytes pruduced small amounts of laminln and fibronectin and three classes of GAGs; hyaluronic acid, heparan sulphate and chondroitin
The effect of transforming growth factor-type f3 l(TGF-P) on the growth and differentiation of normal human skin keratinocytes cultured in serum-free medium was investigated. TCF-P markedly inhibited the growth of keratinocytes at the concentrations >2 ng/ml under low Ca2+ conditions (0.1 mM). Growt
## Abstract Cyclosporine A (CyA) is a powerful nonsteroidal immunosuppressive agent used to prevent graft rejection of organ and bone marrow transplants. A major side effect observed can be attributed to the fibroblast and its functions: proliferation of fibroblasts and formation of fibrotic tissue
