Pigment-independent cAMP-mediated epidermal thickening protects against cutaneous
Rather, forskolin-enhanced epidermal thickening was mediated through increased keratinocyte proliferation, indirectly through secreted factor(s) from cutaneous fibroblasts. We identified keratinocyte growth factor (Kgf) as a forskolin-induced fibroblast-derived cytokine that promoted keratinocyte proliferation, as forskolin induced Kgf expression
· Summary. The epidermis is composed of layers of skin cells called keratinocytes. Your skin has four layers of skin cells in the epidermis and an additional fifth layer in areas of thick skin. The four layers of cells, beginning at the bottom, are the stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, and stratum corneum.

Figure 13.3.1 13.3. 1: sunburn. The epidermis is the outer of the two main layers of the skin, the inner layer being the dermis. It averages about 0.10 mm thick and is much thinner than the dermis. The epidermis is thinnest on the eyelids (0.05 mm) and thickest on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet (1.50 mm).
