Biochem/physiol Actions: | N-Stearoyl phytosphingosine is an intercellular lipid that has been found to inhibit the expression of the allergic cytokines, IL-4 and TNF-alpha. |
Biochem/physiol Actions: | Stratum corneum (SC), the uppermost layer of the epidermis, is composed of seven different types of cermaides. They are present in the continuous lipid phase between SC cells, which also includes cholesterol and free fatty acids. It is thought that the varying type of ceramide constitution in skin determines the physiological function of SC. They also determine the lipid barrier structuring of the skin, where ceramide 3 forms a nearly water-impermeable lipid film. |
