Phagocytic Cell
Merkel cells compose about 8% of the epidermal cells. These specialized cells are found in the deepest part of the epidermis and are involved in the sensation of touch.
An epidermal cell is a cell that is part of the outer layer of an organism. For example, in humans, skin cells are epidermal. Leaves on plants have epidermal layers on the top and bottom of the leaf.
The structure of an onion epidermal cell consists of a cell wall, cell membrane, cytoplasm, and a large central vacuole. The function of an onion epidermal cell is to provide protection for the plant, regulate water and nutrient uptake, and help with gas exchange through stomata.
Both macrophages and dendritic cells are formed from the same precursor cell, the monocytes. However, the two cells serve different functions during an infection. Macrophages remain in the area of the infection and phagocytosis (engulf) foreign invaders and dead cells. Dendritic cells leave the infected tissue and travel to local lymph tissue in order to alert the adaptive immune system.
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is the substance that helps promote mitosis in epidermal skin cells. EGF stimulates cell growth and division in the epidermis, aiding in the regeneration and repair of skin tissue.
An epidermal dendritic cell.
Yes. Epidermal dendritic cells arise from bone marrow and migrate to the epidermis. They are also called Langerhans cells after a German anatomist. These cells ingest foreign substances (phagocytic) and are key activators of our immune system.

Epidermal dendritic cells
Merkel cells compose about 8% of the epidermal cells. These specialized cells are found in the deepest part of the epidermis and are involved in the sensation of touch.
Epidermal (skin) Langerhans cells (a form of dendritic cell) accumulate with other immune cells in various parts of the body and cause damage by the release of chemicals.

An epidermal cell is a cell that is part of the outer layer of an organism. For example, in humans, skin cells are epidermal. Leaves on plants have epidermal layers on the top and bottom of the leaf.
Langerhans cells are primarily found in the stratum spinosum layer of the epidermis. They are a type of dendritic cell that plays a key role in the skin's immune response.
A daffodil epidermal cell typically contains 14 chromosomes.
The stratum spinosum layer of the epidermis has the highest concentration of Langerhjsons cells. Langerhans cells are a type of dendritic cell that plays a key role in the immune response of the skin.
