keratinocyte. [keratâ²inÅsÄ«tâ²]. Etymology: Gk, keras + kytos, cell. an epidermal cell that synthesizes keratin and other proteins and sterols. These cells constitute 95% of the epidermis, being formed from undifferentiated, or basal, cells at the dermal-epidermal junction.
Phagocytes are cells that protect the body by ingesting (phagocytosing) harmful foreign particles, bacteria, and dead or dying cells. Their name comes from the Greek phagein, to eat or devour, and -cyte, the suffix in biology denoting cell, from the Greek kutos, hollow vessel.
