The lowest part of the epidermis, the basal layer, is formed by basal cells. These cells continually divide to form new cells to replace the older ones that wear off the skin's surface.

A perfect layer, meanwhile, can keep you warm, dry, and happy all day long. After copious testing, our team of testers has assembled a list of favorite men’s base layers for every winter ...

A marked gradient of maturation from the edge to the center of the wound was still evident, and this reflected the gradual restriction of Cx43 expression to the basal layers and Cx26 to the upper ...

Pyramidal neurons, a mainstay of cortical regions, receive a plethora of inputs from various areas onto their morphologically distinct apical and basal trees. Both trees differentially contribute to ...

We show that both the periderm and the basal epidermis exhibit polarised distribution of adherens junctions in zebrafish. aPKC, an apical polarity regulator, maintains the robustness of polarisation ...
