    A gap junction or nexus or macula communicans is a specialized intercellular connection between a multitude of animal cell-types. It directly connects the cytoplasm of two cells, which allows various molecules and ions to pass freely between cells.

    The basement membrane is a thin sheet of fibers that underlies the epithelium which lines the cavities and surfaces of organs including skin, or the endothelium which lines the interior surface of blood vessels. The name is somewhat misleading in that the basement membrane is not actually a membrane; rather, it is a matrix beneath any epithelium.

    Keratinocyte is the predominant cell type in the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin, constituting 90% of the cells found there. Those keratinocytes found in the basal layer (stratum basale) of the skin are sometimes referred to as "basal cells" or "basal keratinocytes".

    The cell’s outer membrane made up of a two layers of phospholipids with embedded proteins. The plasma membrane separates the contents of the cell from its outside environment, and it regulates what enters and exits the cell.
