OBJECTIVE : To explore the change of gene expression of extracellular signal regulated protein kinase 5 ( ERK 5 ) and its upstream signaling molecule ( MEK 5 ) in fetal skin of differentially developmental stages and hypertrophic scars . ^^^ METHODS : After morphological characteristics of skin of different developmental stages and hypertrophic scars were detected with pathological methods , gene expression of ERK 5 and MEK 5 was examined with reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analysis ( RT PCR ) . ^^^ RESULTS : In early gestational fetal skin , genes of ERK 5 and MEK 5 were strongly expressed , while in late gestational skin and children skin , the expression of ERK 5 and MEK 5 was apparently decreased ( P < 0 . 05 ) . ^^^ The increase of gene transcription of ERK 5 and MEK 5 in younger fetal skin might be a reason for rapid proliferation of the skin cells and scraless healing of skin . ^^^ The activation of ERK 5 gene expression in hypertrophic scars versus normal skin might be one of the mechanisms controlling the formation of hypertrophic scars , in which the role of MEK 5 needed to be further studied . . ^^^
