Hyperkeratinization, corneocyte cohesion, and alpha hydroxy acids.

A corneocyte is a protein complex that is made of tiny threads of keratin in an organised matrix.

Thickness of a corneocyte is 1-2 m. These cells are surrounded by layer of amorphous lipids lacking typical lamellar architecture present in mature stratum corneum.

The corneocyte cell layer (stratum corneum) can absorb three times its weight in water but if its water content drops below 10% it no longer remains pliable and cracks.

Recent research indicates that the skin abnormalities seen in XLI may be due to accumulation of cholesterol sulfate in the outer epidermis, leading to abnormal barrier function and corneocyte retention.

Matriptase has an essential physiological role in profilaggrin processing, corneocyte maturation, and lipid matrix formation associated with terminal differentiation of the oral epithelium and the epidermis, and is also critical for hair follicle growth.

He doubts whether such cells could function as normal corneal cells.

"In a general sense, humans regenerate cells all the time as part of the normal healing process- epithelial cells and corneal cells for example.

Its sodium salt is commonly used in eye drops to stain damaged conjunctival and corneal cells and thereby identify damage to the eye.

Recently emerging tissue engineering technologies are expected to be capable of making one cadaver-donor corneal cells be expanded and be usable in more than one patient's eye.

My body was still shuddering from the blindness, the gears, the acute smell of smoke that I imagined was from my burned corneal cells, but was actually from the laser.

A 1995 study funded by the European Commission and British Home Office evaluated these among nine potential replacements, including the hens egg chorioallantoic membrane (HET-CAM) assay and an epithelial model cultivated from human corneal cells, in comparison with Draize test data.
