Three stepwise pH progressions in stratum corneum for homeostatic maintenance of the skin [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
The stratum corneum is the outermost skin layer with a vital role in skin barrier function. It is comprised of dead keratinocytes (corneocytes) and is known to maintain its thickness by shedding cells, although, the precise mechanisms that safeguard ...

Clinical vs. chronological skin age: exploring determinants and stratum corneum protein markers of differential skin ageing in 351 healthy women [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Apparent skin age can be determined by several clinical measurements and may differ from chronological age, hence defining age acceleration/deceleration (Age A/D).

Effects of ultraviolet radiation on the stratum corneum of skin in mole rats

open access: yesJournal of Radiation Research and Applied Sciences, 2014
It is likely that the UV rays will affect the epidermis of mammals. All these negative effects justify the studies on the relation between the UV rays and epidermis.

Fungicidal activity plus reservoir effect allow short treatment courses with terbinafine in tinea pedis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Terbinafine, a synthetic allylamine, exerts fungicidal activity against dermatophytes, the causative pathogens of tinea pedis. As proven in numerous clinical trials, tinea pedis can be effectively and safely treated by topical terbinafine.

Macromolecular carbonyls in human stratum corneum: a biomarker for environmental oxidant exposure? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The presence of stratum corneum carbonyls may serve as an intrinsic dosimeter for environmental oxidative damage to skin. To investigate the accumulation of carbonyls in human stratum corneum, skin was tape-stripped, then tapes were sequentially ...

Non-invasive depth profiling of the stratum corneum in vivo using confocal Raman microscopy considering the non-homogeneous distribution of keratin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Confocal Raman microscopy has a number of advantages in investigating the human stratum corneum (SC) in vivo and ex vivo. The penetration profiles of xenobiotics in the SC, as well as depth profiles of the physiological parameters of the SC, such as the ...

Estimating electrical properties and the thickness of skin with electrical impedance spectroscopy: Mathematical analysis and measurements

open access: yesJournal of Electrical Bioimpedance, 2012
Electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) allows for the study and characterization of tissue alterations and properties associated with the skin. Here, the potential application of EIS to estimate the thickness of the stratum corneum is explored in the ...
