1 paź 2023 · The epidermal RR plays a crucial role in increasing contact between the dermis and epidermis, thereby enhancing skin mechanical strength and material transfer. Moreover, the RR also provides a niche for epidermal stem cells located in the basal layer of the epidermis.
25 sty 2022 · The human epidermis is much thicker than the mouse epidermis and has an undulated rete ridge structure. Both undifferentiated and differentiated epithelial cells form cellular junctions to build the solid stratified structure.
20 paź 2023 · Here, we report a micropatterning method to create human skin models replete with rete ridges between their epidermal and dermal layers. Using 3D printed stamps coupled with micromolding, we produced rete ridges composed of rounded features of controlled geometry and periodicity in the dermal layer.
During human skin development, specific interactions between epidermal and dermal cell lineages give rise to fully functional skin that contains specialized appendages, including hair follicles, sweat glands, and rete ridges.
1 lis 2022 · 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...
