Rate of stratum corneum formation in the perinatal rat.
During late gestation, the fetal rat exhibits marked hyperplasia of the interfollicular epidermis and accelerated cornification in preparation for birth. In this study, we utilized simple morphometric techniques to provide quantitative estimates of the rate of stratum corneum (SC) formation during the perinatal period. Cryostat sections of dorsal epidermis from rat pups between -48 and +72 h of...
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 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 کاملShort Communication N-linked neutral oligosaccharides in the stratum corneum of normal and ichthyotic skin
N-glycan oligosaccharides are thought to play multiple, important roles in a variety of biological events. However, N-glycan profiles in the stratum corneum of human skin have not yet been studied in detail. To clarify the N-glycan profiles in the stratum corneum of normal and ichthyotic epidermis, N-glycan profiles were studied by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using normal huma...
