    Glossary Involucrin

    protein in skin cells aiding barrier formation

    Involucrin is a protein found in the upper layers of the skin, specifically in the cells of the epidermis. It plays a crucial role in forming the protective barrier of the skin by contributing to the structure of the cornified envelope, which helps protect against environmental damage and water loss.
