History-dependent switch-like differentiation of keratinocytes in response to skin barrier damage.
PLoS Computational BiologyThe epidermis is formed by layers of keratinocytes with increasing levels of differentiation towards the outer skin called skin barrier, which protects our body from environmental stressors and dehydration.

Penetration enhancing effect of phytoceramides [PDF]
, 2012 Ceramides are essential components in the stratum corneum barrier function. Different classes of ceramides are present in human skin, differing in the nature of sphingosine and acyl moieties with respect to chain length, degree of saturation and the ...

Skin barrier in atopic dermatitis
Frontiers in Bioscience, 2014 The skin represents the largest organ of the body and provides a vital interface between the body and the environment. Hereditary and acquired alterations of structural proteins and lipids of the stratum corneum and epidermal tight junctions leading to a diminished skin barrier function are major causative factors for a number of skin diseases, in ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work explores Li‐substituted P2 layered oxides for Na‐ion batteries by crystallographic and electrochemical studies. The effect of lithium on superstructure orderings, on phase transitions during synthesis and electrochemical cycling and on the interplay of O‐ versus TM‐redox is revealed via various advanced techniques, including semi‐simultaneous

Evaluating the effect of moisturizers containing endogenous lipids on skin barrier properties
Journal of Dermatologic Science and Cosmetic TechnologyLipids in stratum corneum are largely responsible for skin barrier function. There have been numerous studies on skin barrier repairing and moisturizing effects of products containing occlusives, emollients and humectants.
