Rete ridges surround the dermal papillae, which can be seen as small extensions protruding from the papillary dermis within the epidermis. These two structures are perfectly embedded; the alternation of a rete ridge with a dermal papilla creates a characteristic repetitive and wave-shaped pattern.
We utilized and validated pig skin as a model for human skin development to identify when rete ridges form. Furthermore, we characterized the relationship between the rete ridge stem cell niche and hair density, epidermal thickness, and vascularization across Mammalia.
Rete ridges are interdigitations of the epidermis and dermis of the skin that play multiple roles in homeostasis, including enhancing adhesion via increased contact area and acting as niches...
