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

Nature 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]

Scientific 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

Journal 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.

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

Journal 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 ...

Analytical data of synthesized deuterated isopropyl myristate and data about the influence of IPM/IPMdeut on the thermodynamics and morphology of 2D Stratum Corneum models

Data in Brief, 2017
The data in this article shows the effect of isopropyl myristate (IPM) on a 2D Stratum Corneum lipid model. In the first part, the analytical characterization of the synthesized deuterated isopropyl myristate is given.

Human epidermal lipids: characterization and modulations during differentiation

Journal of Lipid Research, 1983
Using thin-layer chromatography and glass capillary gas-liquid chromatography, we have quantitated the lipids in the germinative, differentiating, and fully cornified layers in human epidermis.

Sphingosylphosphorylcholine is upregulated in the stratum corneum of patients with atopic dermatitis

Journal of Lipid Research, 2003
To clarify the functional relevance of sphingomyelin (100) deacylase to the ceramide deficiency seen in atopic dermatitis (AD), we developed a new highly sensitive method and measured the metabolic intermediate sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC) that ...

Reduction of stratum corneum ceramides in Neu-Laxova syndrome caused by phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase deficiency

Journal of Lipid Research, 2018
Neu-Laxova syndrome (NLS) is a very rare autosomal recessive congenital disorder characterized by disturbed development of the central nervous system and the skin and caused by mutations in any of the three genes involved in de novo l-serine biosynthesis:
