The Epidermis as an Adjuvant [PDF]
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2012 It is now clear that the epidermis has an active role in local immune responses in the skin. Keratinocytes are involved early in inflammation by providing first-line innate mechanisms and, in addition, can contribute to adaptive immune responses that may be associated with clinical disease.

Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 1995 1993). Since undifferentiated keratinocytes (i.e. basal cells) provide the major supply of catecholamines to the total epidermis, it seems feasible that those basal cells in contact with melanocytes are of major importance in signal transduction, metabolism, growth and differentiation.

Fifty-kDa Hyaluronic Acid Upregulates Some Epidermal Genes without Changing TNF-α Expression in Reconstituted Epidermis [PDF]
, 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]
, 2009 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 ...

The Phospholipases A of Epidermis
Journal 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

Tissue localization of betacyanins in cactus stems
Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2012 Betalains are soluble pigments found only in the suborder Chenopodiniae, while in all other Angiospermae they are replaced by anthocyanins. The convergent evolution of the presence of anthocyanins and betalains in vegetative tissues supports the ...
