    GlossaryKeratinocyte Proliferation

    process where skin cells multiply to regenerate and heal

    Keratinocyte proliferation refers to the process by which keratinocytes, the primary cells in the outer layer of the skin, multiply and produce new cells. This process is crucial for skin regeneration and healing, as it helps replace dead or damaged skin cells and maintain the skin's protective barrier. For professionals, understanding keratinocyte proliferation is essential for studying skin conditions and developing treatments for disorders like psoriasis and alopecia.
