   Abstract : Tactile perception is considered an important contributor to the overall consumer experience of a product. However, what physical properties that create the specifics of tactile perception, are still not completely understood. READ MORE

4. 2. Skin barrier responses to moisturizers

   Author : Izabela Buraczewska; Hans Törmä; Marie Lodén; Berit Berne; Magnus Lindberg; Ehrhardt Proksch; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; skin barrier function; moisturizers; long-term treatment; transepidermal water loss; gene expression; skin pH; lipids; urea; Dermatology and venerology; Dermatologi och venerologi;

   Abstract : Moisturizers are used in various types of dry skin disorders, but also by people with healthy skin. It is not unusual that use of moisturizers is continued for weeks, months, or even years. READ MORE

5. 3. Topical formulations, design and drug delivery : "A dive into water"

   Author : Abdullah Ali; Marie Lodén; Anan Yagmur; Anders Hall; Malmö universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; water; topical formulations; Pickering emulsion; skin cream; drug delivery; tactile friction; sensory panel; nasal; buccal; mucosa; skin; triglycerides; ethanol; drug transport; cosmetic appeal;

   Abstract : Water is a vital component regulating the properties of topical formulations and their interaction with biological barriers, such as skin and mucosa. Changing the watercontent within the frame of the pharmaceutical triangle will have a huge impact on which type of formulation, such as a cream, ointment, gel, or lotion, is formed, as well as the physical properties of the formulation.

   Abstract : Hereditary ichthyosis is a collective name for many dry and scaly skin disorders ranging in frequency from common to very rare. The main groups are autosomal recessive lamellar ichthyosis, autosomal dominant epidermolytic hyperkeratosis and ichthyosis vulgaris, and x-linked recessive ichthyosis. READ MORE

7. 5. Skin Barrier Function and mRNA Expression Profiles in Patients with Atopic Dermatitis, Ichthyosis Vulgaris, and X-linked Recessive Ichthyosis : Aetiopathogenic Differences and the Impact of Moisturizing Treatment

   Author : Torborg Sturesdotter Hoppe; Berit Berne; Hans Törmä; Anders Vahlquist; Charlotta Enerbäck; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; atopic dermatitis; ichthyosis vulgaris; X-linked recessive ichthyosis; skin barrier function; moisturizers; transepidermal water loss; gene expression; Dermatologi och venereologi; Dermatology and Venerology;

   Abstract : Atopic dermatitis (AD), ichthyosis vulgaris (IV), and X-linked recessive ichthyosis (XLRI) are characterized by dry skin and impaired skin barrier. AD and IV are related to loss-of-function mutations in FLG (encoding filaggrin), whereas XLRI is caused by deletions or inactivating mutations in the steroid sulphatase gene (STS). READ MORE
