Description
"La raison d'être" of the epidermis, as beautifully portrayed by Kathy Madison in the journal of Investigative Dermatology (J Invest Dermatol. 2003 Aug; 121 (2):231-41), describes the primary function of the skin: The terminal differentiation of an initially multipotent stem cell produces a protective, semi-permeable stratum corneum (SC) that permits terrestrial life. The permeability barrier function of the SC is provided by lipid bilayers lamellae surrounding anucleated apoptic corneocytes.
