    Glossary Epidermal Keratinocytes

    cells in the skin's outer layer producing protective keratin

    Epidermal keratinocytes are the primary type of cells found in the outermost layer of the skin, known as the epidermis. These cells produce keratin, a tough, protective protein that helps the skin act as a barrier against environmental damage, pathogens, and water loss.
