Conflict of Interest Statement

The presenter declares that there exists no real or perceived conflict of interest.

I acknowledge that all animal experimentation has been carried out in accordance with the Society’s Guiding Principles in the Use of Animals in Toxicology.

Outline/Objectives

Understanding how anatomy affects the topical absorption of chemicals, drugs, and nanoparticles

Potential pathways for absorption Species differences Regional differences Experimental model systems Disease and alteration of the barrier

Biological Functions of Skin

Physical and metabolic barrier to the environment: stratum corneum

Thermoregulation: hair and fur, apocrine and eccrine sweat glands, sebaceous glands, and blood flow shunts

Mechanical Support: collagen and water Endocrine (e.g., vitamin D) Neurosensory reception Immunologic responses: keratinocytes, Langerhans cells Metabolism, Biotransformation Uniquely exposed to UV light–sunburn

Skin: PORTAL of Entry and TARGET for Toxicity

Importance of Lipid Biochemistry/Biophysics

Removal of rate-limiting stratum corneum increases absorption Intercellular lipids are the primary pathway for drug absorption Consist primarily of ceramides, sterols, and other neutral lipids Exist in a liquid-crystalline matrix, the fluidity of which is related

to permeability of hydrophilic drugs Temperature, hydration, and chemical penetration enhancers

increase fluidity and thus permeability

Cutaneous Biotransformation

● Although P450 activity is less in skin, it can have a profound effect on bioavailability

● Phase I and II occur in basal layer● Applications

– Prodrugs: conversion of lipid ester to free drug– Detoxification of pesticides (parathion)– Bioactivation of toxicants (benzo(a)pyrene)

There is ongoing research defining species differences in absorption related to biotransformation!

Absorption vs. PenetrationAbsorption

● Relates to the amount of chemical that penetrates the skin and then absorbed into the bloodstream to have a systemic effect.

● Detected by flux into the perfusate or blood.

Penetration● Relates to the amount of chemical that gets to targets within the

skin and could be available for local cutaneous activity.● Detected by confocal microscopy, transmission electron

microscopy, special stains, biopsies, and tape stripping.

Potential Pathway for Drug Delivery

Experimental Model Systems

Animal Models• Practicality• Absorption

– Toxicology─Increased absorption compared to man to assess worse case scenarioRats, Mice, Rabbits

– Pharmacology─Similar absorption to manPigs, Primates, Hairless Rodents

• Toxicity – Immunological considerations– Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Rodents

Species differences for different mechanisms are independent ∴ one species is not the best model for all endpoints in humans!

Species Differences

• Anatomical factors such as thickness, adnexial structures, etc.

• Biochemical differences in lipid composition, enzymes, etc.

• Different receptors for immunological or pharmacological agents

• Physiological differences including blood flow, etc.

Pig Skin is Similar to Human Skin

• Large surface area makes it amenableto test transdermal patches for humans

• Similar surface characteristics

I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.

• Similar body masses• Similar skin to body surface

area ratio• Sparse hair coat

Differences Between Pig and Human Skin

• Pig skin has an additional interfollicularmuscle

• Young pigs’ hair follicles occur in a triad • Pigs have apocrine sweat glands over

most of the body• Immunological and drug metabolism

differences are increasingly being characterized

Body Site Differences The rate of penetration and absorption differs across various body

sites Scrotum > Forehead > Axilla > = Scalp > Back = Abdomen > Palm and

Plantar surfaces Seen in humans and animals making route-to-route extrapolations

“interesting.” The major reasons are due to:

– Differences in anatomy: skin thickness– Differences in physiology: blood flow and distribution of blood

vessels– Stratum corneocyte cell size ?

Ear Skin is Different than Other Areas

• Thickness is thinner compared to other body sites and is thicker on the outside (convex) surface than the inner (concave) surface

• Hair follicle and hair density is greater on the convex surface• Glandular density is different between surfaces• Cartilage is present • Blood vessels traverse cartilage and is

different than other body regions

Extraction with Cyclohexane–1 Min–3X

Lipid Composition

• Human and porcine skin have similar biochemical composition

• Physical chemical properties of lipids are similar between these species

• Lipid extraction increases TEWL similar to tape stripping• Pig skin lipid extraction showed relative proportions of

individual lipids were similar at different body regions • Note that these studies could serve as models of

solvent-induced skin disease

Advantages of In Vitro Models

• Ease of screening large number of compounds• Can screen potential toxic agents that would be unethical to

study in animals• Alternative animal models help in the 3 “Rs”

- Reduction- Refinement- Replacement

Disadvantages of In Vitro

• Difficulty of reproducing results and standardizing between laboratories

• Intralaboratory variability and Intra/Interlot variability• Subjectivity of recording techniques• Absorption of compounds is much higher than normal• Mathematical modeling greatly increases the ability to use in

vitro models to study mechanisms and predict human absorption (Baynes and Kasting will discuss this)

Important Considerations in Assessing Absorption/ Penetration Penetration is a function of NP type, species, and skin treatment (flexion, mechanical

action, tape stripping, abrasion)

Nanoparticle size, size distribution, shape, surface coatings, pH, and vehicle

Current literature suggests minimal penetration of nanoparticles with intact skin

Several factors can influence the extent of chemical and nanoparticle uptake in the skin: barrier integrity (UV, chemicals, flexion, tape stripping, abrasion), contaminated surface, anatomical structures (blood flow, thickness, appendageal structures), presence of skin diseases such as allergic and irritant contact dermatitis, atopic eczema, psoriasis, hydration, detergents, metabolism, and drugs may all increase skin absorption.
