Detailed explanation-1: -Damaged epithelial cells stimulate the release of more pro-inflammatory chemokines/cytokines and DAMPs, exacerbating epithelial cell damage and death.
Detailed explanation-2: -Epithelial cells reproduce rapidly to keep up with the constant need for new cells to replace damaged ones.
Detailed explanation-3: -Epithelial cells reproduce rapidly. In fact, they are one of the fastest reproducing cells found in the body.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: Because of its high mitotic rate, epithelial tissue has the ability to heal itself so rapidly. The lower layers of epithelial tissue has a high amount of stem cells and these stem cells divide constantly so that they can replace the cells that are above them.
