Researchers identify a potential biomarker of aging

The skin is the only organ that shows age more profoundly. While researchers have hypothesized about the ravages of time on skin and also the epidermal stem cells that undergo differentiation to restore the external layer of the skin, no suitable method is available to assess their aging at the molecular level.
