Mechanical 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 کاملSorption properties of the human stratum corneum.
Water sorption is important for the overall structure and function of keratinized tissues such as the human epidermal stratum corneum (SC). In this study we report on a gravimetric method for studying sorption properties of human SC, both from heel and female breast skin. Changes in mass were measured as the relative humidity was altered in steps under controlled environmental conditions. The p...
متن کاملDesquamation 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 کاملStratum corneum dysfunction in dandruff
Dandruff is characterized by a flaky, pruritic scalp and affects up to half the world's population post-puberty. The aetiology of dandruff is multifactorial, influenced by Malassezia, sebum production and individual susceptibility. The commensal yeast Malassezia is a strong contributory factor to dandruff formation, but the presence of Malassezia on healthy scalps indicates that Malassezia alon...
متن کاملThe Lipid Organisation in Human Stratum Corneum and Model Systems
The primary function of the skin is to act as a barrier against unwanted influences from the environment. The barrier function of the skin is located in the superficial of the skin, the stratum corneum. The stratum corneum consists of dead cells filled with keratin and water, which are embedded in lipid regions. The lipid regions are the only continuous structure in the stratum corneum. For thi...
