Desquamation in the stratum corneum.
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. A number of regulatory mechanisms for desquamation have been postulated based on our findings.
متن کاملTraceability of Polyethylcyanoacrylate nanoparticles through the Stratum Corneum
In this work we follow the polyethylcyanoacrylate nanoparticles through human skin. Photoluminescence (PL) is used to quantify the amount of these nanocarriers into the layers of the skin stratum corneum (SC). To obtain samples of each layer of SC, tape stripping technique was conducted. Reproducible data were obtained, and the nanoparticles’ distribution in each layer of the SC is presented. P...
متن کاملMechanical Properties of the Human Stratum Corneum: Hydration Effects on Graded Delamination of Human Stratum Corneum
Reinhold Dauskardt Stanford University, Professor Materials Sciences and Engineering The stratum corneum (SC) is the outermost layer of the skin. Its process of reneweal is regulated by various mechanisms, including chemical and structural gradients through the SC thickness. In this study, an in vitro mechanics approach for studying the delamination behavior of SC in the direction perpendicular...
متن کاملSkin diseases associated with the depletion of stratum corneum lipids and stratum corneum lipid substitution therapy.
The skin is the largest organ of the body, whose main function is to protect the body against the loss of physiologically important components as well as harmful environmental insults. From the inside to the outside, the skin comprises three major structural layers: the hypodermis, the dermis and the epidermis. The epidermis contains four different sublayers, the stratum corneum (SC), stratum g...
متن کاملIn vitro permeation of nickel salts through human stratum corneum.
Allergic contact dermatitis due to nickel salts is common. It is therefore important to measure the permeation of these salts through the stratum corneum (SC), the primary rate-limiting domain in skin. An advanced diffusion system and analytical techniques now enable better measurement of the flux than was possible in earlier experiments. Human SC was prepared by trypsinization of dermatomed ca...
