Fifty-kDa Hyaluronic Acid Upregulates Some Epidermal Genes without Changing TNF-α Expression in Reconstituted Epidermis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Due to its strong water binding potential, hyaluronic acid (HA) is a well-known active ingredient for cosmetic applications. However, based on its varying molecular size, skin penetration of HA may be limited. Recent studies have demonstrated

The Phenion (R) Full-Thickness Skin Model for Percutaneous Absorption Testing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In recent years many efforts have been made to replace dermal toxicity testing of chemicals in the animal by in vitro assays. As a member of a German research consortium, we have previously contributed to the validation of an in vitro test protocol for ...

Dynamic changes in connexin expression correlate with key events in the wound healing process. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Wound healing is a complex process requiring communication for the precise co-ordination of different cell types. The role of extracellular communication through growth factors in the wound healing process has been extensively documented, but the role of

Ultraviolet B irradiation-induced keratinocyte senescence and impaired development of 3D epidermal reconstruct

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica, 2021
Ultraviolet B (UVB) induces morphological and functional changes of the skin. This study investigated the effect of UVB on keratinocyte senescence and the development of reconstructed human epidermis (RHE).

Dsg2 Upregulation as a Rescue Mechanism in Pemphigus

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
In pemphigus vulgaris (PV), autoantibodies directed against the desmosomal cadherin desmoglein (Dsg) 3 cause loss of intercellular adhesion. It is known that Dsg3 interactions are directly inhibited by autoantibody binding and that Dsg2 is upregulated in

The Phospholipases A of Epidermis

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1980
Phospholipases A have been characterized in fetal rat epidermis. Both a calcium dependent phospholipase A with pH optimum of 8.5 and a calcium independent enzyme with a pH optimum of 4.5 were found. Activity against both acyl groups of phosphatidyl choline were found for both enzymes and the findings suggested that the acid enzyme (pH 4.5) is primarily

Whole picture of human stratum corneum ceramides, including the chain-length diversity of long-chain bases

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2022
Ceramides are essential lipids for skin permeability barrier function, and a wide variety of ceramide species exist in the stratum corneum (SC). Although ceramides with long-chain bases (LCBs) of various lengths have been identified in the human SC, a ...
