Mode of dermal-epidermal adhesion
Abstract
The mode of dermal-epidermal adhesion was investigated by a systematic enzyme digestion of the dermo-epidermal junction. The anchoring fibrils and filaments were found to consist of elastin and collagen-like filaments which intertwine to form the adepidermal membrane. A model on the possible in situ conditions is proposed.
