corneum
2. Dermal Layers Papillary Layer and Reticular Layer
3. Primary cells of keratinocytes, melanocytes, langerhans cells, merkel cells
the epidermis
4. Primary cells of fibroblasts, WBCs, and mast cells
the dermis
5. Primary func- barrier, regulate fluid, thermoregulation, light touch, Vitamin D production, and
tions of the epi- contribute to cosmesis/appearance
dermis
6. Primary func- support and nourish the epidermis, house epidermal appendages, assist with
tions of the der- infection control, assist in thermoregulation, and provide sensation
mis
7. Changes to skin flattening of dermal-epidermal junction, decreased number of melanocytes, de-
with age: creased inflammatory/immunological responses, loss of langerhan cells, de-
creased vascularization, and altered sensation
8. Seborrheic Ker- old age spots, tan, brown or black growth have a wart-like or waxy, pasted-on
atosis appearance; can resemble skin cancer
9. Rashes temporary eruptions of skin associated with heat, drug/chemical induced reactions
