    immortalized human skin cells used for research

    HaCaT cells are a type of immortalized human keratinocyte cell line, which means they are skin cells that have been modified to divide indefinitely in laboratory conditions. These cells are commonly used in scientific research to study skin biology, wound healing, and diseases like psoriasis and skin cancer, because they closely mimic the behavior of normal human skin cells.
