Human Epidermal Keratinocyte-adult (HEK-a)

Product Description

A keratinocyte is the predominant cell type in the epidermis, constituting 90% of the cells found there ^[1]. The primary function of keratinocytes is the formation of a barrier against environmental damage by pathogenic bacteria, fungi, parasites, viruses, heat, UV radiation and water loss. Keratinocytes are also able to produce a variety of cytokines, growth factors, interleukins and complement factors. Therefore keratinocytes are important for wound healing, inflammation, and immune response.
