The primary role of sebum in the pathophysiology of acne vulgaris and its therapeutic relevance in acne management

open access: yesJournal of Dermatological Treatment
Background Sebum physiology and its contributions to acne vulgaris (AV) pathophysiology have been long debated. Within the pilosebaceous unit, androgens drive sebocyte production of sebum, comprising mono-, di-, and triglycerides (the latter converted to

Thematic Review Series: Skin Lipids. Antimicrobial lipids at the skin surface

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2008
The skin surface represents our interface with the external environment, and as such, is our first line of defense against microbial colonization and infection. Lipids at the skin surface are thought to underlie at least part of an antimicrobial barrier.
