Lipid Synthesis from Acetate-1-14C by Suction Blister Epidermis and Other Skin Components

S.L. Hsia, James E. Fulton, David D. Fulghum, Munishkumar Buch

Abstract

Lipids synthesized from acetate-1-14C in vitro in human dermis, epidermis, and sebaceous glands were examined. On the average, epidermis incorporates more 14C into lipids than dermis does in a given specimen. On per milligram basis, epidermis is several times more active than dermis.
