Huxley|ˈhʌkslɪ| The name of T. H. Huxley (1825–95), English biologist, used in the possessive in Huxley's layer, a layer, one or more cells thick, of horny flattened nucleated cells lying inside Henle's layer in the inner root-sheath of the hair follicle, described by him in 1845.
1853Busk & Huxley tr. Kölliker's Man. Human Histol. I. 187 These [cells] which form a simple or a double layer (Huxley's layer) are constantly situated internal to the common, and as far as I have seen, always single, fenestrated layer of cells. 1890Gray's Anat. (ed. 12) 61 The inner root-sheath consists of a delicate cuticle next the hair; then of one or two layers of horny, flattened, nucleated cells, known as Huxley's layer, and finally of a single layer of non-nucleated, horny, cubical cells, called Henle's layer. 1954Physiol. Rev. XXXIV. 115 Above the lower bulb region [of the hair follicle], immediately central to the external sheath, is Henle's layer of the internal sheath. Huxley's layer and the cuticle are next in order. |
