Relative uptake of minoxidil into appendages and stratum corneum and permeation through human skin in vitro.
We examined uptake of the model therapeutic agent, minoxidil, into appendages, stratum corneum (SC), and through human skin, under the influence of different vehicles. Quantitative estimation of therapeutic drug deposition into all three areas has not previously been reported. Finite doses of minoxidil (2%, w/v) in formulations containing varying amounts of ethanol, propylene glycol (PG), and w...
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...
متن کاملInfluence of Chemical Permeation Enhancers on the in vitro Skin Permeation of Minoxidil through Excised Rat Skin: A Mechanistic Study
Abstract: Minoxidil, a pyrimidine derivative (2, 4-diamino-6-piperidinopyrimidine-3-oxide) is the only topical medical treatment with proven efficacy for the treatment of Androgenetic alopecia that shown low skin penetration and bioavailability. The main aim of this research was to investigate the effect of some permeation enhancers on the in vitro skin permeability of minoxidil . Minoxid...
متن کاملSkin barrier function and stratum corneum hydration
Under normal circumstances, epidermis must be as impermeable as possible except for a small amount of water loss to hydrate the outer layers of the SC. Although all living cells require water to function, some “dead” cells also require water to be metabolically active. As it is the case of corneocytes, epidermis must retain sufficient water to (a) hydrate the outer layers of the SC to maintain ...
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...
