Differentiation-associated expression of ceramidase isoforms in cultured keratinocytes and epidermis

Differentiation-associated expression of ceramidase isoforms in cultured keratinocytes and epidermis

Ceramides (Cers) accumulate within the interstices of the outermost epidermal layers, or stratum corneum (SC), where they represent critical components of the epidermal permeability barrier. Although the SC contains substantial sphingol, indicative of ceramidase (CDase) activity, which CDase isoform...
