Journal ArticleDOI
SLC24A5 Encodes a trans-Golgi Network Protein with Potassium-dependent Sodium-Calcium Exchange Activity That Regulates Human Epidermal Melanogenesis
Rebecca S. Ginger,Sarah E. Askew,Richard M. Ogborne,Stephen Wilson,Dudley Ferdinando,Tony Dadd,Adrian M. Smith,Shubana Kazi,Robert T. Szerencsei,Robert J. Winkfein,Paul P. M. Schnetkamp,Martin R. Green +11 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that NCKX5 directly regulates human epidermal melanogenesis and natural skin color through its intracellular potassium-dependent exchanger activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
What interactions drive the salivary mucosal pellicle formation
TL;DR: In this article, the salivary pellicle on particles with different surface properties (hydrophobic or hydrophilic with a positive or negative charge) was examined to determine a suitable model to mimic the mucosal PEllicle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aqueous lubrication by fractionated salivary proteins: Synergistic interaction of mucin polymer brush with low molecular weight macromolecules
Gleb E. Yakubov,Gleb E. Yakubov,Lubica Macakova,Lubica Macakova,Stephen Wilson,John H.C. Windust,Jason R. Stokes,Jason R. Stokes +7 more
TL;DR: It is discovered that a key driver for low friction is a hydrated brush-like layer formed by glycosylated species, with an essential synergistic contribution coming from the low molecular weight components that facilitate spreading, adsorption and strengthening of the salivary film on hydrophobic substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of serious games in the iManageCancer project
Stefan Hoffmann,Stephen Wilson +1 more
TL;DR: Two serious games were developed to support adult and young cancer patients with serious games to manage the impact of the disease on their psychological status, such as negative emotions, anxiety or depression, and motivate them to stay positive and to participate in social life.
Book ChapterDOI
NCKX5, a natural regulator of human skin colour variation, regulates the expression of key pigment genes MC1R and alpha-MSH and alters cholesterol homeostasis in normal human melanocytes.
Stephen Wilson,Rebecca S. Ginger,Tony Dadd,David A. Gunn,Fei-Ling Lim,Magdalena Sawicka,Melanie Jane Sandel,Paul P. M. Schnetkamp,Martin R. Green +8 more
TL;DR: The data imply that NCKX5 exchanger function influences natural variation in skin pigmentation via a novel, unknown mechanism affecting cellular sterol levels.
