Role of fatty acid transporters in epidermis
Abstract
Skin epidermis is an active site of lipid synthesis. The intercellular lipids of human stratum corneum (SC) are unique in composition and quite different from the lipids found in most biological membranes.

The latter process has been shown to be...
