✦ Synopsis


A quantitative migration assay for human keratinocytes was developed to assess the influence of extracellular matrix molecules on cell motility independently from their effect on cell proliferation. Fibronectin and collagen types I and IV markedly promoted keratinocyte migration, but albumin, type V collagen, and heparan sulfate proteoglycan had little effect. In contrast, laminin inhibited keratinocyte motility and dramatically reduced type IV collagen-induced migration in a concentration-dependent manner. Laminin was not toxic, since it had no apparent effect on morphology, growth, or ability of cells to be passaged. Laminin, a major component of the lamina lucida, may inhibit motility of keratinocytes in vivo. Absence of contact with laminin, which accompanies wounding, may facilitate motility and healing in the epidermis.

Directed migration of keratinocytes is essential for wound healing. The migration of human keratinocytes in vitro is strongly influenced by the presence of a physiological electric field and these cells migrate towards the negative pole of such a field (galvanotaxis).

## Abstract Laminin 5/laminin 332 (LN332) is an adhesion substrate for epithelial cells. After secretion of LN332, a regulated cleavage occurs at the carboxy‐terminus of its alpha3 subunit, which releases a tandem of two globular modules named LG4/5. We show that the presence of the LG4/5 domain in

Resveratrol, a phytoalexin found in grapes and other plants, is a potent antioxidant, anti-inΒ―ammatory, and antiproliferative agent that is thought to have chemopreventive properties with respect to carcinogenesis. However, the antiproliferative effects of resveratrol have been described primarily f
