PKC–DLX3-dependent control of cutaneous homeostasis. Schematic working model of PKC–DLX3 signaling in keratinocytes displaying that, in response to differentiation or pro-inflammatory stimuli, such as calcium or TPA, DLX3 regulates PKC-dependent gene expression signature associated with barrier defects, inflammatory mediator release, antimicrobial peptides and cell cycle. Independently of PKC, DLX3 is implicated in the transcriptional control of other pathways, such as negative regulation of transcription, Wnt signaling, phosphatase activity and cell adhesion. Globally this signaling is determinant for the maintenance of the cutaneous homeostasis
