Description
In the last decade, there have been unprecedented advances in the understanding of the dermo-epidermal junction. This book contains contributions from almost 100 participants from 14 countries who are involved in this field. The emphasis of the book is placed on current developments in basic and clinical investigations of fine structure of the skin, and includes contributions on "The Dermo-epidermal Junction in Normal and Abnormal Skin" and "Usefulness of Electron Microscopy for Diagnosis in Dermatology". It will make a significant contribution to advances in the dermatological field, and will be of great interest to dermatologists, biochemists, cell biologists, and all those involved in this area.
