Age and Sex Variation in Skin Surface Lipid Composition and Sebum Excretion Rate

Abstract: Summary.— The sebum excretion rate and skin surface lipid composition were determined in 193 male and female control subjects aged between 4 and 60 years. The sebum excretion rate, squalene and wax ester content of surface lipid were maximal in males aed 26–40. The percentages of surface lipid wax esters were greater in males than females at all ages, but the prepubertal peak of wax esters in males may be due to an epidermal contribution from sterol esters. There was no significant age or sex variation in the … Show more

“…The resurgence of interest in Malassezia in D/SD supports that dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis are manifestations of the same disorder differing only in severity (Priestley and Savin 1976;Kligman 1979;McGrath and Murphy 1991;Danby et al 1993;Bulmer and Bulmer 1999;Faergemann 2000b;Pierard-Franchimont et al 2000;Warner et al 2001). D/SD most commonly first appears in adolescents and young adults, likely because of the increase in sebaceous activity during puberty (Ramasastry et al 1970;Cotterill et al 1972). The number of scalp Malassezia has been reported to be higher in patients with seborrheic dermatitis or dandruff than in normal controls (McGinley et al 1975), but the evidence is controversial and contradicted by other reports ).…”

“…21 Há incremento fisiológico na taxa de secreção sebácea, em ambos os sexos, no final da primeira infância, devido ao início da produção estrogênica adrenal, maior entre os homens. 18,21,22 O decréscimo da secreção, que já ocorre a partir da adolescência, acentuando-se após os 50 anos, 23 principalmente entre as mulheres. 24 Em indivíduos sem acne, não há diferença na excreção de cera e ésteres de colesterol no sebo, mas níveis maiores foram observados no sexo masculino em dois picos: de 0-10 e de 26-40 anos.…”
