Epidermal cell renewal in the horse.
Epidermal cell labeling index and cell renewal time were estimated in 8 adult horses, using autoradiography after [3H]thymidine was given intradermally. The mean labeling index was 1.45 +/- 0.47%, and the mean cell renewal time of the viable epidermis was approximately 17 days.
