In this study, targeted deletion of the stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 gene in mice disrupted the epidermal lipid barrier, leading to increased water loss, impaired thermoregulation, and metabolic issues.

The researchers found that corneodesmosin is crucial for maintaining skin barrier integrity and hair follicle architecture in mice, with its deletion leading to severe skin and hair abnormalities.

This review discusses the role of acyl-CoA binding protein (ACBP) in the epidermal barrier, noting that its disruption in mice is linked to skin and fur abnormalities; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that mice lacking the 1αOHase enzyme, which is responsible for producing a key vitamin D metabolite, showed impaired epidermal differentiation and delayed recovery of skin barrier function after disruption.

Skin aging reflects overall body aging and can indicate internal health conditions.
