    Glossary Epithelial Stem Cells

    cells that regenerate and repair skin and hair follicles

    Epithelial Stem Cells are a type of stem cell found in the epithelial tissues, which line the surfaces and cavities of organs and structures throughout the body, including the skin and hair follicles. These cells have the unique ability to self-renew and differentiate into various specialized cell types, playing a crucial role in tissue repair, regeneration, and maintaining the integrity of the epithelial layers.
