Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

(SC) formation in the human epidermis requires lipid processing. Lipoxygenases (LOXs) such as 12R-Lipoxygenase (12R-LOX) and Epidermis-type lipoxygenase 3 (eLOX-3) contribute to this process. Mutations in their genes cause Autosomal Recessive Congenital Ichthyosis (ARCI) in patients. On the other hand, 12S-lipoxygenase (12S-LOX) is expressed in the human epidermis, but its role still remains to be clarified. The involvement of eLOX-3, 12R, and 12S-LOX in conditions or processes such as skin photodamage, wound healing, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis is suggested but still remains unclear. In order to eventually gain a better understanding of the role of these LOXs in such processes, models of Tissue-Engineered Skins (TESs) with an impaired expression for the native form of either eLOX-3, 12R-LOX, or 12S-LOX were produced using CRISPR-Cas9(D10A) technology. All three models showed impaired keratinocyte differentiation and changes in the prevalence or the size of lipid droplets within the most superficial layers, thus reproducing features observed in ARCI and supporting a role for 12S-LOX in SC formation. Since eLOX-3 and 12R-LOX depleted TES's reproduced features observed in ARCI, such models can be considered as reliable tools for the functional studies of these LOXs in the human epidermis.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
