PROGRESSIVE EFFECTS OF DIABETES MELLITUS ON THE SKIN EPITHELIUM OF THE RA
Skin serves as interface between inner aand outer environment, and acts a a mechanical barrier. Changes in its characteristics may lead to a higher pathogenicity, less defense capacity, or both.

Skin serves as interface between inner aand outer environment, and acts a a mechanical barrier. Changes in its characteristics may lead to a higher pathogenicity, less defense capacity, or both.
