Re: GB --> FR precuticular epithelium

[Guest guest]

Bonsoir Nathalie,

I haven't found anything helpful with " precuticular " but there are a

few hits for " precuticle cells " and looking a little further, this

led me to the anagen matrix of the hair follicle, more precisely in

the bulb, which contains " matrix epithelial cells " , which in turn

give rise to progenitor cells for the layers of the hair shaft.

My thought was that " precuticular epithelium " might in some way refer

to a stage before the formation of the cuticle???

On the other hand, maybe the authors are simply talking about the

bulb? Do you have a diagram?

bon courage!
