摘要 |
The present invention relates to a method for determining the state of epidermal differentiation of a human keratinocyte in a human epithelium sample, said method including determining the level of expression of at least one microRNA selected from among hsa-miR-455-3p, hsa-miR-141, hsa-miR-148a, hsa-miR-182, hsa-miR-224, hsa-miR-26a, hsa-miR-26b, hsa-miR-361-5p, hsa-miR-425, hsa-miR-92b, hsa-let-7i, hsa-miR-22, hsa-miR-221, hsa-miR-222, hsa-miR-29a, hsa-miR-29b, hsa-miR-663, hsa-miR-30a, and hsa-miR-30c within said keratinocyte, and comparing the level of expression of the microRNA(s) selected at the mean level of expression of the microRNA(s) selected in the undifferentiated keratinocytes or in differentiated epidermal keratinocytes, preferably from the same strain or the same population. The present invention also relates to various uses of the method for determining the state of epidermal differentiation, as well as to pharmaceutical or cosmetic compositions. |
