Embodiment 1
[0130] The experiment in this example proves that not all RXR activator heterodimers can promote barrier development. Activators of three specific receptors—retinoid receptor, vitamin D receptor, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ)—were used and proved negative.
[0131] Previous studies have shown that full-thickness skin of rats with a gestational age of 17 days exhibited lamellar bodies in granulosa cells secreted in the stratum corneum space after 2 days of culture, but as in 19-day-old rats in utero Like mice, the epidermis lacks a mature lamellar membrane structure and a competent barrier. Hanley, K., et al., "Epidermal Barrier Ontogeny: Maturation in Serum-Free Medium and Promotion by Glucocorticoids and Thyroid Hormones but not Selected Growth Factors", J. Invest. Dermatol. 106: 404-411( 1996). In contrast, the stratum corneum, whose barrier function is equivalent to that seen in mature epidermis, is usually formed by culture no later than 4 ...
Embodiment 2
[0141] The experiments reported in this Example demonstrate that activators of PPAR[alpha] promote barrier development, whereas activators of other PPAR subtypes do not.
[0142] An example of a PPARα activator is linoleic acid, figure 1 TEWL values of explants after 2 days of incubation in 300 μΜ linoleic acid are shown. In contrast to the four inactive activators discussed in Example 1 as well as the control group, linoleic acid significantly reduced TEWL (pfigure 1 middle).
[0143] The three currently known subtypes of PPAR are PPARα, PPARδ, and PPARγ. These isoforms are pharmacologically distinct and uniquely activated by different agents. Yu, V.C. et al., "RXRbeta: A Co-Regulator That Enhances Retinoic Acid, Thyroid Hormone, and Vitamin D Receptor Binding to Its Cognate Response Element," Cell 67: 1251-1266 (1991). To determine whether the promotion of barrier development was provided specifically by PPARα, the following various PPAR activators were tested:

Embodiment 3
[0152] Experiments reported in this Example demonstrate that activators of farnesol X-activated receptors (FXR) promote barrier development, whereas farnesol, farnesol metabolites, farnesol metabolic precursors, or farnesol Other compounds similar to other metabolites of metabolic precursors did not promote barrier development.
[0153] see again figure 1 , farnesol is included in the bar graph showing TEWL values for 2 days of culture in 50 μM farnesol. In contrast to the four null activators discussed in Example 1 and the control, farnesol significantly reduced TEWL (p<0.005, n=8) to a similar extent as linoleic acid.
[0154] To determine whether the effects of farnesol on barrier development were mediated by FXR, the TEWL of several other compounds described in a manner related to farnesol or known to activate FXR were tested. Farnesol is produced from acetyl-CoA through a multistep metabolic synthesis, a key intermediate being mevalonate. As part of the pathway, meva...
