Sebomic identification of sex- and ethnicity-specific variations in residual skin surface components (RSSC) for bio-monitoring or forensic applications [PDF]
, 2018 Background: “Residual skin surface components” (RSSC) is the collective term used for the superficial layer of sebum, residue of sweat, small quantities of intercellular lipids and components of natural moisturising factor present on the skin surface ...

Journal of Lipid Research, 1980 Highly purified human granulocytes synthesize [14C]farnesol and [14C]squalene but not [14C]sterols from [14C]mevalonic acid. Dimethylsulfoxide was found to be an excellent vehicle for carrying [3H]squalene-2, 3-oxide into the intact cells.

Surface Properties of Squalene/Meibum Films and NMR Confirmation of Squalene in Tears [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2015 Squalene (SQ) possesses a wide range of pharmacological activities (antioxidant, drug carrier, detoxifier, hydrating, emollient) that can be of benefit to the ocular surface. It can come in contact with human meibum (hMGS; the most abundant component of the tear film lipid layer) as an endogenous tear lipid or from exogenous sources as eyelid sebum or

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sheath blight disease of rice caused by the fungal pathogen R. solani AG1‐IA remains a big threat to rice production worldwide. A limited genetic variation in rice for tolerance to this pathogen and little success in understanding how it defeats host defence are major reasons behind it.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Gynostemma pentaphyllum, a herb used in tea and traditional Chinese medicine, shows geographic variation in its production of valuable dammarane‐type ginsenosides and gypenoside LVI between populations from Suining (SN) and Nanning (NN). To elucidate the mechanisms underlying this differential metabolite accumulation, a chromosome‐level genome

Mechanism of lubrication by tricresylphosphate (TCP) [PDF]
The coefficient of friction was measured as a function of temperature on a pin-on-disk tribometer. Pins and disks of 440C and 52100 steels were lubricated with tricresylphosphate (TCP), 3.45 percent TCP in squalene, and pure squalene.

Statins and the vasculopathy of systemic sclerosis: potential therapeutic agents? [PDF]
, 2006 It has been postulated that endothelial cell injury is the initiating event in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis, causing attraction, attachment, migration and infiltration of activated T-cells and subsequent production of cytokines and growth ...

Regulation of squalene epoxidase in HepG2 cells.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1990 Regulation of squalene epoxidase in the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway was studied in a human hepatoma cell line, HepG2 cells. Since the squalene epoxidase activity in cell homogenates was found to be stimulated by the addition of Triton X-100, enzyme ...

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.ABSTRACT Psidium guineense (Myrtaceae) is traditionally used for various medicinal purposes, although its stem remains underexplored. This study provides the first integrated phytochemical, pharmacological and computational evaluation of the stem extracts to elucidate their antioxidant, antidiabetic and antibacterial potential.
