Published permeability coefficient (Kp) data for the transport of a large group of compounds through mammalian epidermis were analyzed by a simple model based upon permeant size [molecular volume (MV) or molecular weight (MW)] and octanol/water partition coefficient (Koct). The
Thymidine analogs containing o-carboranylalkyl groups at the 3-position were screened as potential substrates for human thymidine kinase 1 (TK1), an enzyme that is selectively expressed in a variety of rapidly proliferating cells, including tumor cells. On the basis of previous

Penetration-enhancing solvents may modify diffusional routes through the stratum corneum and the partitioning of drugs into these pathways. To investigate the mechanisms of action of enhancers, steady-state fluxes were measured in vitro for polar methanol, nonpolar octanol, and an intermediate
Controlling the molecular conformation of oligomers on surfaces through noncovalent interactions symbolizes an important approach in the bottom-up patterning of surfaces with nanoscale precision. Here we report on the design, synthesis, and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) investigation of linear oligoamides
The Journal of investigative dermatology, 93(2), 280-286 (1989-08-01)
The permeability coefficients (kp) of a series of methyl-substituted p-cresols were determined in human stratum corneum along with their partition coefficients (PC) between water and untreated stratum corneum, delipidized stratum corneum, octanol, and heptane. The PC values were identical in
