Journal ArticleDOI
Variations of Hair Follicle Size and Distribution in Different Body Sites
TL;DR: The present investigation clearly contradicts former hypothesis that the amount of appendages of the total skin surface represents not more than 0.1% and leads to a differential evaluation of skin penetration processes and a completely different understanding of penetration of topically applied drugs and cosmetics.
Journal ArticleDOI
40 nm, but not 750 or 1,500 nm, Nanoparticles Enter Epidermal CD1a+ Cells after Transcutaneous Application on Human Skin

TL;DR: Investigation of the suitability of nanoparticles in transcutaneous vaccine administration found a high density of Langerhans cells around hair follicles that, when sorted, readily internalized all size particles, but not 750 or 1,500 nm nanoparticles, may be efficiently used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Penetration Profile of Microspheres in Follicular Targeting of Terminal Hair Follicles
TL;DR: The basis for follicular targeting of essential structures containing stem cells for keratinocytes, melanocytes, and mast cells has been laid and a selective penetration route of the microspheres into the HF is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Benefit and risk of organic ultraviolet filters.
TL;DR: The most important aspect in the development of a new UV filter is its safety as discussed by the authors, and the safety of new UV filters is assessed by an initial in vitro screen including photostability, cytotoxicity, photocytotoxicity and genotoxicity tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Follicular Targeting–A Promising Tool in Selective Dermatotherapy
TL;DR: Topical delivery of active compounds to specific targets within the skin may help reduce side-effects caused by unspecific reactions, and may help develop new strategies in the prevention and treatment of skin diseases.
