Acid ceramidase overactivity drives ceramide loss, leading to atopic dry skin and Th2‐skewed immune polarization

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ceramide deficiency in the stratum corneum (SC) is a key etiological factor in atopic dermatitis (AD). To clarify the direct role of SC ceramide depletion in impairing SC barrier and water‐holding functions and in initiating AD‐like skin symptoms and disease‐specific molecular alterations, we generated Tg mice overexpressing a mutant form of ...

Role of percutaneous penetration enhancers [PDF]

, 1996
It is clear that scientists are now only beginning to comprehend the complexity of transdermal drug delivery. Elucidation of the biochemical composition and functioning of the intrinsic diffusional barrier of the stratum corneum has prompted ...

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 ...

Cellulose Acetate Fibers With Infiltrated ZnO Nanocrystals: Activation of Antibacterial Properties Against Acne vulgaris by Oxygen Plasma Treatment

Small, EarlyView.
We present biodegradable cellulose acetate fibers infiltrated with ZnO nanocrystals for Acne treatment. Fibers produced by centrifugal spinning were vapor‐phase infiltrated to contain uniform ZnO nanocrystals. Oxygen plasma treatment enhanced the fibers´ wettability.

Desquamation in the Stratum Corneum

Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 2000
To maintain a constant thickness of the stratum corneum the desquamation rate and the de novo production of corneocytes is delicately balanced. Using a plantar stratum corneum model we have obtained evidence that proteolysis is a central event in the desquamation process.

An Attempt to Establish the Consensus Regarding the Diagnosis, Classification, and Treatment of Rosacea in Japan Using a Modified Delphi Method: The Japan Rosacea Consensus

The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Japan, rosacea has attracted increasing interest. However, because rosacea had been thought to be relatively rare in Japan, the perception of this disease varies among dermatologists. To address these challenges, this study developed a consensus regarding the diagnosis, classification, and treatment of rosacea using a modified Delphi method
