| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Stratum corneum lipids were extracted from both wild type- and lipase knockout neonates, and analyzed by mass-spectrometry. This lipidomics revealed that the deletion of the lipase gene alters a wide variety of lipid molecules ranging over several subclasses including ceramides, cholesterols, cholesterol esters, free fatty acids, monoglycerides and so on. Structural analyses by small angle X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope indicated that the lamellar lipid structure in stratum corneum was significantly disturbed whereas the overall organization of epidermal tissue was not apparently altered. These results demonstrate that the process of lipid metabolism mediated by the lipase is critically important for the maintenance of the overall lipid composition and lamellar structures of lipids in stratum corneum. The outcome of this study may contribute to identify a novel causative gene for dermatosis and to understand its pathological condition.
