The skin's outer layer relies on lipids and proteins to protect against damage.
research Effect of De-epithelialization on Graft Survival Rate After Follicular Unit Extraction
Removing the outer layer of skin cells from hair grafts does not change the graft survival rate but may improve how it looks right after surgery.
research Epidermal–dermal coupled spheroids are important for tissue pattern regeneration in reconstituted skin explant cultures
Skin spheroids with both outer and inner layers are key for regrowing skin patterns and hair.
research Wnt4 increases the thickness of the epidermis in burn wounds by activating canonical Wnt signalling and decreasing the cell junctions between epidermal cells
Wnt4 protein makes the outer skin layer thicker in burn wounds by turning on a specific healing pathway and loosening the connections between skin cells.
