The major cells in epidermis
Keratinocyte:
Cormeocyte:

Langerhans cell
Merkel cell

Melanocyte
l   In stratum basale
l   The cell density is 1000-1500unit/mm2
l   Different body part has different Melanocyte density
l   excrete melanin in Keratinocyte to protect UV ray and reduce the chemical from environment

Langerhans cell
l   in Stratum granulosum
l   cell desnity is 400-1000unit/mm2
l   It is like the white blood cell to prevent infections.

Merkel cell
l   In Stratum basale
l   Connect the surrounding Keratinocyte
l   Are more in finger, oral cavity, and hair root
