The human epidermis is undergoing a continuous differentiation process, in which small populations of stem cells proliferate and differentiate. As in other organs theses stem cells are entitled to maintain the regenerative capacity of the skin throughout the life of the subject. Accordingly methods for specific identification of this particular cell type in the human epidermis are essential for answering questions in epidermal research.
