PROMOTES THE J((eizo Yamamura. tab. of Developmental Biology, National Institute for Dental Research. NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA (KY, MN, HKK) and Dept of Dermatology, Kobe Univ. School of Med., Kobe, Japan (KY, MI) Laminin, a major constituent of basement membrane, has various bioloQical activities with several active sites defined at the synthetic peptide level. Whole laminin is reported to have no effects on ker&nocyte terminal differentiation induced by suspension m methylcellulose, whereas fibronectin is reported to Inhibit the differentiation. In order to reveal the functions of respective active sequences m laminin for keratinocyte terminal differentiation. synthetic peptides containing active sites. Tyr-lie-Gly-Ser-Arg (YIGSR), Ser-lie-Lys-Val-AlaVal (SIKVAV). Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD). and related peptides were prepared and assayed. Neonatal human foreskin keratinocytes were cultured in keratinocyte growth medium with or without these synthetic peptides, and antibodies to involucrin and filaggrin were used as markers of differentiation. Whole laminin showed no effect as already reported. Neither SIKVAV, RGD. nor other related peptides tested in this study had effect on keratinocvte differentiation. Onlv the YIGSR oeobde showed the dlfferentl&on promoting effect at ihe concentratidn bf 30 100 pg/ml. These data demonstrate that a specific site on the laminin may at certain stages regulate keratlnocyte differentiation.
