Skin ages when the main cells in the dermis lose their identity and function

With age, our tissues lose their function and capacity to regenerate after being damaged. A study published in Cell by scientists at the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona) and the Centro Nacional de Análisis Genómico of the Centre for Genomic Regulation(CNAG-CRG) explains how dermal fibroblasts age.
