The dermal-epidermal junction is the boundary area between the dermis and the epidermis in the skin. It is a specialized region that connects the two layers of skin and plays a crucial role in maintaining the structural integrity of the skin. The dermal-epidermal junction contains various structures, such as anchoring proteins and fibers, that help to anchor the epidermis to the dermis and provide support and stability to the skin. This junction also facilitates the exchange of nutrients and waste products between the two layers of skin.
