Alkanediols are widely used as multifunctional ingredients in dermal formulations. In addition to their preservative effect, considering their possible impact on drug penetration is also essential for their use. In the present study, the influence of 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol, 1,2-pentanediol, 1,2-hexanediol and 1,2-octanediol on the skin penetration of triamcinolone acetonide from four different semisolid formulations was investigated. Furthermore, confocal Raman spectroscopy measurements were performed to examine the influence of the alkanediols on stratum corneum lipid content and order. Alkanediols were found to increase the penetration of triamcinolone acetonide. However, the extent depends strongly on the formulation used. In certain formulations, 1,2-pentanediol showed the highest effect, while in others the penetration-enhancing effect increased with the alkyl chain length of the alkanediol used. None of the tested alkanediols extracted lipids from the stratum corneum nor reduced its thickness. Notwithstanding the above, the longer-chained alkanediols cause the lipids to be converted to a more disordered state, which favors drug penetration. This behavior could not be detected for the shorter-chained alkanediols. Therefore, their penetration-enhancing effect is supposed to be related to an interaction with the hydrophilic regions of the stratum corneum.

Intercellular Lipid

The barrier function of mammalian skin is maintained by intercellular stratum corneum lipids. In human patients with atopic dermatitis, an abnormal lipid barrier results in dry skin and increased transepidermal water loss. At this time, it is not known if a defective lipid barrier is present in atopic dogs. Normal and atopic canine skin were postfixed in ruthenium tetroxide and studied using transmission electron microscopy to determine structural differences within stratum corneum lipids. Intercellular lipid lamellae were graded on a semiquantitative scale. The deposition of stratum corneum lipid lamellae in atopic canine skin appeared markedly heterogeneous compared with that seen in normal canine skin. When present, the lamellae often exhibited an abnormal structure. The continuity and thickness of the intercellular lipid lamellae were significantly less in nonlesional atopic than in normal canine skin. These preliminary observations suggest that the epidermal lipid barrier is defective in atopic canine skin. Additional studies are needed to further characterize the biochemical defect and to possibly correct it with nutritional and/or pharmacologic intervention.
