    Glossary Hair Matrix Keratinocytes

    specialized cells producing keratin for hair growth

    Hair Matrix Keratinocytes are specialized cells located at the base of the hair follicle. These cells are responsible for producing the keratin proteins that make up the hair shaft, essentially driving hair growth. They rapidly divide and differentiate, contributing to the formation and elongation of the hair strand.
