Cover: Confocal microscopy image of differentiated human oral keratinocytes (HOKs). HOKs serve as a valuable model for studying fundamental keratinocyte biology, as well as processes related to immortalization and malignant transformation. Immunocytochemistry was performed to detect IRF6 (green) and E-cadherin (red), while nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue). Images were captured and processed using a Leica SP8 Stellaris confocal microscope.
