The physics of stratum corneum lipid membranes [PDF]
, 2016 The stratum corneum (SC), the outermost layer of skin, comprises rigid corneocytes (keratin-filled dead cells) in a specialized lipid matrix. The continuous lipid matrix provides the main barrier against uncontrolled water loss and invasion of external ...

Enhanced TCR footprint by a novel glycolipid increases NKT-dependent tumor protection [PDF]
, 2013 NKT cells, a unique type of regulatory T cells, respond to structurally diverse glycolipids presented by CD1d. Although it was previously thought that recognition of glycolipids such as a-galactosylceramide (alpha-GalCer) by the NKT cell TCR (NKTCR ...
