Phase behavior of artificial stratum corneum lipids containing a synthetic pseudo-ceramide: a study of the function of cholesterol
The phase properties and structural characteristics of stratum corneum (SC) lipid lamellae have been a subject of considerable interest. To clarify the individual role of the stratum corneum constituent lipids, such as ceramides, free fatty acids, and cholesterol, we investigated the thermotropic pr...
