Did you mean Basement Membrane?

GlossaryBasement Membrane

thin layer separating epithelial cells from underlying connective tissue

The basement membrane is a thin, fibrous layer that lies between the epithelial cells (which line surfaces and cavities of organs) and the underlying connective tissue. It provides structural support, acts as a barrier to regulate the movement of cells and molecules, and plays a crucial role in tissue repair and regeneration. In the context of hair, the basement membrane surrounds hair follicles, helping to anchor them in place and maintain their structure.
