    GlossarySkin Differentiation

    process where skin cells mature into specialized types

    Skin differentiation refers to the process by which skin cells develop and mature into their specialized forms and functions. This involves the transformation of undifferentiated stem cells into various types of skin cells, such as keratinocytes, melanocytes, and fibroblasts, each playing a specific role in maintaining the skin's structure and function. This process is crucial for skin regeneration, wound healing, and maintaining the skin's protective barrier.
