Heat-separation of normal human skin for epidermal and dermal prostaglandin analysis

Abstract: Heat-separation was introduced as a simple, reliable method of obtaining pure epidermis and dermis for prostaglandin (PG) analysis. Heating of normal human skin at 60 degrees C for 1 min resulted in a distinct separation of the epidermis from the dermis. After heat-separation the mean concentration +/- SEM of PGE1 activity in normal epidermal tissue was 2906 +/- 281 pg/mg dry weight. The PGE1 level in the corresponding dermal samples was 30 +/- 4 pg/mg dry weight and the mean leakage of PGE1 from the tissue in… Show more

“…20 Heating normal skin of the Yucatan micropig (Charles River Japan, Tokyo, Japan) at 60°C for 2 min resulted in the distinct separation of the stratum corneum from the skin tissue. The stratum corneum of Yucatan micropig was cut off with a biopsy (scalpel) (diameter, 6 mm; Kai Industries, Gifu, Japan) to prepare the SCE disk; and then washed three times with sterile physiological saline, as described previously.…”
