It has been shown previously that two- to three-fold differences in the average staining intensity of fluorescein-conjugated antibodies to \u03b2\n                    <jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\n                    integrin subunits reflect profound differences in the proliferative potential of keratinocytes, with integrin-bright populations being enriched for stem cells. In the search for additional stem cell markers, we have stained sections of normal human epidermis with antibodies to proteins involved in intercellular adhesion and quantitated the fluorescence of individual cell-cell borders. In the basal layer, patches of brightly labeled cells were detected with antibodies to E-cadherin, \u03b2-catenin, and \u03b3-catenin, but not with antibodies to P-cadherin, \u03b1-catenin, or with pan-desmocollin and pan-desmoglein antibodies. In the body sites examined, palm and foreskin, integrinbright regions were strongly labeled for \u03b3-catenin and weakly labeled for E-cadherin and \u03b2-catenin. Our data suggest that there are gradients of both cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix adhesiveness within the epidermal basal layer and that the levels of E-cadherin and of \u03b2-and \u03b3-catenin may provide markers for the stem cell compartment, stem cells expressing relatively higher levels of \u03b3-catenin and lower levels of E-cadherin and \u03b2-catenin than other basal keratinocytes.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/002215549704500611","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,4,1]],"date-time":"2011-04-01T03:01:27Z","timestamp":1301626887000},"page":"867-874","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":67,"title":["The Epidermal Stem Cell Compartment: Variation in Expression Levels of E\u2013Cadherin and Catenins Within the Basal Layer of Human Epidermis"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"45","author":[{"given":"Jean-Pierre","family":"Mol\u00e8s","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Keratinocyte Laboratory, Imperial Cancer Research Fund, London, United Kingdom"}]},{"given":"Fiona M.","family":"Watt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Keratinocyte Laboratory, Imperial Cancer Research Fund, London, United Kingdom"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1997,6,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1097-4644(19960616)61:4<514::AID-JCB4>3.0.CO;2-R"},{"key":"bibr2-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"741","DOI":"10.1242\/jcs.104.3.741","volume":"104","author":"Arnemann J","year":"1993","journal-title":"J Cell Sci"},{"key":"bibr3-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.84.8.2302"},{"key":"bibr4-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/15419069509081287"},{"key":"bibr5-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1043-4682(10)80012-1"},{"key":"bibr6-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0092-8674(89)90958-6"},{"key":"bibr7-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0092-8674(90)90696-C"},{"key":"bibr8-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/blood.V81.9.2272.2272"},{"key":"bibr9-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0955-0674(95)80104-9"},{"key":"bibr10-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1242\/dev.106.4.619"},{"key":"bibr11-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1523-1747.ep12343791"},{"key":"bibr12-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1083\/jcb.124.4.589"},{"key":"bibr13-002215549704500611","first-page":"351","volume":"1","author":"Iversen OH","year":"1968","journal-title":"Cell Tissue Kinet"},{"key":"bibr14-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0092-8674(95)90453-0"},{"key":"bibr15-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0092-8674(93)90251-K"},{"key":"bibr16-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1083\/jcb.109.4.1807"},{"key":"bibr17-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0014-5793(91)80929-W"},{"key":"bibr18-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1523-1747.ep12471843"},{"key":"bibr19-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0955-0674(94)90094-9"},{"key":"bibr20-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"225","DOI":"10.1242\/jcs.98.2.225","volume":"98","author":"Nicholson LJ","year":"1991","journal-title":"J Cell Sci"},{"key":"bibr21-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1083\/jcb.103.6.2649"},{"key":"bibr22-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1242\/jcs.1988.Supplement_10.4"},{"key":"bibr23-002215549704500611","first-page":"2128","volume":"49","author":"Shimoyama Y","year":"1989","journal-title":"Cancer Res"},{"key":"bibr24-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0955-0674(95)80102-2"},{"key":"bibr25-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1083\/jcb.98.1.16"},{"key":"bibr26-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.88.11.4796"},{"key":"bibr27-002215549704500611","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3013","DOI":"10.1242\/jcs.109.13.3013","volume":"109","author":"Zhu AJ","year":"1996","journal-title":"J Cell Sci"}],"container-title":["Journal of Histochemistry &amp;
