Rete pegs (also known as rete processes or rete ridges) are the epithelial extensions that project into the underlying connective tissue in both skin and mucous membranes. In the epithelium of the mouth, the attached gingiva exhibit rete pegs, while the sulcular [2] and junctional epithelia do not. [3] .

8 mar 2019 · In normal human skin, rete ridges play multiple roles in skin homeostasis. These interdigitations of the epidermis and dermis increase the contact area between these layers, enhancing adhesion. These distinct niches in skin also provide a specialized environment for keratinocyte stem cells.
25 lis 2015 · Focusing on the rete ridges and complementary dermal papillae in human skin, we review the identity and organisation of abundant dermal cells types and present evidence for interactions between the dermal microenvironment and the interfollicular keratinocytes.
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.
