Applicable Clinical Terms Definitions
Epithelioid Cells: Characteristic cells of granulomatous hypersensitivity. They appear as large, flattened cells with increased endoplasmic reticulum. They are believed to be activated macrophages that have differentiated as a result of prolonged antigenic stimulation. Further differentiation or fusion of epithelioid cells is thought to produce multinucleated giant cells (GIANT CELLS).
Skin: The outer covering of the body that protects it from the environment. It is composed of the DERMIS and the EPIDERMIS.
