    GlossaryEpithelial Cell Proliferation

    process where cells lining organs multiply and increase

    Epithelial cell proliferation refers to the process by which epithelial cells, which are the cells that line the surfaces of organs and structures in the body, multiply and increase in number. This process is crucial for wound healing, tissue regeneration, and maintaining the integrity of barriers like the skin and the lining of the gut. For professionals, understanding this process is essential for developing treatments for conditions like cancer, where cell proliferation is uncontrolled, or for promoting healing in injuries and surgeries.
