Epithelial proliferation refers to the process by which epithelial cells, which form the protective barrier of organs and tissues, undergo rapid cell division and multiplication. This process plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and function of various organs, such as the skin, gut, and lungs. Dysregulation of epithelial proliferation can lead to various diseases, including cancer and inflammatory conditions. Research in this area seeks to understand the molecular mechanisms that regulate epithelial proliferation and identify potential therapeutic targets for treating related diseases.
