Epidermal Keratinocyte Cells in Laboratory, Clinical Trials, and Market: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The skin serves essential protective and regulatory functions. In severe injuries such as burns, keratinocytes—being the main epidermal cells—play a pivotal role in skin regeneration through secretion of growth factors and cytokines.

The facial SC lipid profiles of young Chinese women in the early aging stage exhibited significant changes with age. The average chain length of diacylglycerol, triacylglycerol and short‐chain ceramides decreases with age, while the cholesteryl ester and ceramide EO subclasses increase. Some ceramides correlate positively with TEWL, skin elasticity and

An α-Melanocyte–Stimulating Hormone Analogue in Erythropoietic Protoporphyria
To the Editor: Patients with erythropoietic protoporphyria, a rare inherited disease, accumulate photosensitizing protoporphyrin in the dermis, which results in severe dermal pain and incapacitating phototoxic reactions when the skin is exposed to visible light, primarily blue light (the Soret band, with the strongest absorbance among the porphyrins).1

Melanocyte-stimulating hormone—mimetic action of the phenothiazines
AbstractWe have compared the melanophore-stimulating action of four phenothiazines, trifluoperazine, perphenazine, chlorpromazine, and prochlorperazine, with α-MSH on the skin of the lizard Anolis carolinensis, using a new rate method of bioassay. The dose-response curves for the phenothiazines were parallel to that of α-MSH, and when given together α ...

Biology of human hair: Know your hair to control it [PDF]
Hair can be engineered at different levels—its structure and surface—through modification of its constituent molecules, in particular proteins, but also the hair follicle (HF) can be genetically altered, in particular with the advent of siRNA-based ...

Acute toxicity of Gammalin 20 to Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus (Lacepede) [PDF]
The impact of acute exposure of Gammalin 20 (an organochlorine pesticide) was investigated in a static bioassay test over a 96-(4-day) period on the fingerlings of Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus (lacepede).
