In this volume the impact of cell culture models on dermatological research is discussed by scientists from medicine, physiology, biology, pharmacology,and pharmacy. The book includes the following topics: orthology

and pathology of the skin, differentiation of keratinocytes

and fibroblasts, problems of the cultivation of

melanocytes, biochemistry of pigment metabolism, models for wound

healing and tissue renewal, fibroblast function and metabolism

of collagen, models for the investigation of ageing as well as models
for pharmacological and toxicologial tests. Thus, a wide arch is spanned,
from basic problems with cultivation and characterization of cell cultures to examples of application. Dermatologists as well as cell biologists
will benefit from this publication.
