Geographical ancestry is a key determinant of epidermal morphology and dermal composition

1 Feb 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Geographical ancestry plays a key role in determining the susceptibility of human skin to external insults and dermatological disease. Despite this, studies of skin from individuals of diverse geographical ancestry focus primarily on epidermal pigmentation. Few reports characterize the gross morphology and composition of the dermis and dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ). OBJECTIVES: To characterize...
