  "summary": "Skin development depends on coordinated biochemical and mechanical signaling to form a multilayered epidermal barrier. Our previous work demonstrated that the stratified tissue-specific desmosomal cadherin Desmoglein-1 (Dsg1) promotes epidermal differentiation in human in vitro models. Dsg1 first appears in the developing mouse epidermis around E14, coinciding with a developmental transition in…",
