## Abstract Corticotropin releasing factor receptor type 1 (CRF1), a coordinator of the body responses to stress, is also expressed in human skin, where it undergoes alternative splicing. Since the epidermis is continuously exposed to the environmental stress, human keratinocytes were chosen to stu

Receptors for melanotropin (MSH) were found to be expressed by immortalized primary human epidermal keratinocytes (RHEK-1). Using '251-PMSH as a probe, the MSH receptors from mouse melanoma cells and human keratinocytes were found to be remarkably similar. In each cell line, there were high and low
Transformed keratinocytes (SCC-4, SCC-15, SCC-12F2, SVK14) or normal keratinocytes which differ in their differentiation programme were used to study the regulation of EGF-receptor expression. The capacity of the cells to differentiate was modulated by changing the extracellular calcium concentratio
