A novel role of angiotensin <scp>II</scp> in epidermal cell lineage determination: Angiotensin <scp>II</scp> promotes the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into keratinocytes through the p38 <scp>MAPK</scp>,<scp> JNK</scp> and <scp>JAK</scp>2 signalling pathways

Abstract

Our data demonstrated for the first time that Ang II plays a promotive role in the differentiation of BM-MSC into keratinocytes through the AT₁ receptor, and that the p38 MAPK, JNK and JAK2 signalling pathways are involved in this process.
