    Notes: Summary Skin lesions of three patients with inflammatory linear verrucose epidermal naevus (ILVEN) were examined. Histologically, orthokeratosis and parakeratosis were alternately seen in the acanthotic epidermis. By N-(7-dimethylamino-4-methyl-3-coumarinyl)maleimide staining, the horny cells in the parakeratotic epidermis showed a cytoplasmic SH pattern and a weak membranous SS pattern. The orthokeratotic epidermis revealed an increased involucrin expression, whereas the parakeratotic epidermis showed almost no involucrin expression. Ultrastructurally, in the parakeratotic epidermis, the living keratinocytes had prominent Golgi apparatuses and vesicles in the cytoplasm. In the intercellular spaces in the upper spinous layer through to the lower horny layer, an electron dense, homogeneous substance was deposited. The cytoplasm of the horny cells was filled with keratin filaments and contained remnants of nucleus and cytoplasmic membrane structures, and some lipid droplets. The marginal band formation was incomplete. Most of these ultrastructural abnormalities were not found in the orthokeratotic epidermis. There are both similarities and differences in histopathogenesis of the parakeratotic epidermis between ILVEN and psoriasis. A unique finding was the lack of involucrin expression in the ILVEN parakeratotic epidermis.

    Stratum corneum lipid abnormalities in atopic dermatitis (1991)

    Notes: Summary Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) often present with a dry skin. To clarify the relationship between dry skin and lipid abnormalities within stratum corneum, stratum corneum lipids were collected from six AD patients aged 15 to 25 years and from sex- and age-matched controls. All major stratum corneum lipid classes were separated and quantitated by high-performance thin-layer chromatography/photodensitometry. Six ceramide fractions were also isolated and quantitated by thin-layer chromatography/photodensitometry. Esterified fatty acids of both ceramide 1 (acylceramides) and wax esters were analysed by capillary gas chromatography. The relative amounts of all the stratum corneum lipid classes including squalene, cholesterol esters, wax esters, triglycerides, free fatty acids, cholesterol, ceramides, cholesterol sulphate and phospholipids did not differ statistically between AD patients and controls. However, a significant decrease in proportion of ceramide 1, which is believed to be a carrier of linoleate responsible for a water-barrier function, and increased levels of esterified C18∶1 fatty acids (oleate) of ceramide 1 were observed in AD patients. On the other hand, the fatty acid compositions as well as the proportions of C16∶1 straight-chain component in sebum wax esters of AD patients were very similar to those of controls. These results suggest that a significantly reduced amount and/or structural alterations of ceramide 1 deriving from epidermal keratinocytes may be responsible for the impaired water-barrier function of the skin in AD.

    Ultrastructural study of the skin in Sjögren — Larsson syndrome (1991)

    Notes: Summary The ichthyosiform skin and the uninvolved skin of a 5-year-old Japanese female with Sjögren — Larsson syndrome were examined by light and electron microscopy to elucidate the keratinization disorder. Light microscopically, the epidermis of the ichthyosiform skin showed acanthosis, papillomatosis and hyperkeratosis. The horny cells had a basket-weave appearance. The granular cell layer was slightly thickened. Slight round cell infiltration and vascular dilatation were seen in the upper dermis. The uninvolved skin was histologically normal. Electron microscopically, in both ichthyosiform and uninolved skin, abnormal lamellar or membranous inclusions were present in the cytoplasm of horny cells of the epidermis. These inclusions appeared to be derived from some of the lamellar bodies and/or abnormal membranous structures found in the cytoplasm of spinous and granular cells. Mitochondria in the epidermal basal cells were more numerous in the ichthyosiform skin than in the uninvolved skin. These findings indicate that, whether the skin is involved or not, the epidermis of the patient with this disorder may always have a structural abnormality, which may be genetically determined. Local environmental factors may play a role in inducing the acanthosis and papillomatosis of the epidermis.
