Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.

Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.

Scientists created keratinocyte cell lines from human hair that can differentiate similarly to normal skin cells, offering a new way to study skin biology and diseases.

Inherited ichthyoses cause widespread skin scaling and thickening due to gene mutations.

Cornification evolved from keratinization in vertebrates, with differences between mammals and sauropsids.
