Vitamin C Boosts Epidermal Growth via DNA Demethylation https://www.jidonline.org/article/S0022-202X(25)00416-6/fulltext
Journal of Investigative Dermatology
Vitamin C Promotes Epidermal Proliferation by Promoting DNA Demethylation of Proliferation-Related Genes in Human Epidermal Equivalents
Keratinocyte differentiation is highly regulated to produce the stratified structure
of the epidermis and must be balanced with cell proliferation. Our prior studies revealed
that hairless mice that cannot synthesize vitamin C (VC) exhibit epidermal atrophy.…
