Figure 5. Wound Response from Scale and Interscale EpdSCs.

Figure 5

Cellular (laser) ablation and wounding induce a re-epithelialization response from all nearby EpdSCs, regardless of origin. However, only local cells contribute to long-term homeostasis of the injured site. Thus, interscale contribution to the injured scale region is only transient and vice versa. Diagrams represent a top-down view of EpdSCs of the tail/back interfollicular epidermis.
