Background: Sensitive skin exhibits impaired skin barrier function. The lipid composition of the skin, a pivotal element within the stratum corneum’s “brick-and-mortar” structure, plays a dual role: it is integral to cell differentiation processes and ...

Impact of Alkanediols on Stratum Corneum Lipids and Triamcinolone Acetonide Skin Penetration
Alkanediols are widely used as multifunctional ingredients in dermal formulations. In addition to their preservative effect, considering their possible impact on drug penetration is also essential for their use.

Making Sweat Measurable: Induction, Sampling, and Refreshment in Wearable Biofluid Sensing
Wearable sweat sensing relies not only on chemical detection but also on controlled biofluid management. This Review integrates sweat physiology, induction strategies, and microfluidic sampling architectures, demonstrating how flux, transport, and refreshment shape measurement reliability.

Degree of Skin Barrier Disruption Affects Lipid Organization in Regenerated Stratum Corneum
Previously, a skin barrier repair model was developed to examine the effect of formulations on the lipid properties of compromised skin. In this model, the lipid organization mimics that of several skin diseases with impaired skin barrier and less dense ...

An Energy Autonomous Microneedle Array‐Based Sensing System for Continuous Biomarker Monitoring
This work presents an innovative self‐powered wearable biosensor system for real‐time monitoring of multiple biomarkers in interstitial fluid. The device integrates stainless steel‐based minimally invasive microneedles with ion‐selective membranes, enabling simultaneous Na+, K+, Ca2+, pH, and glucose detection.

Elucidating the molecular landscape of the stratum corneum
• Characterization of the molecular structure of skin, especially the barrier layer, the stratum corneum using 3D OrbiSIMS. • Understand the chemical variations relating to fundamental biological processes, such as the epidermal cholesterol sulfate ...

Study on the lipid organization of stratum corneum lipid models by (cryo-) electron diffraction
The barrier function of the skin resides in the stratum corneum (SC). This outermost layer consists of protein-rich corneocytes and lipid-rich intercellular domains.
