Experimental Dermatology · 2019 · in vitro

Treating human SZ95 sebocytes with palmitic acid, a major saturated free fatty acid of sebum, significantly increased intracellular lipid content and raised expression and secretion of proinflammatory cytokines (including IL-6 and IL-8) in a Toll-like-receptor-dependent manner, strengthening the proposed link between free fatty acids and acne aggravation.

Mediators of Inflammation · 2013 · in vitro

In cultured human HaCaT keratinocytes, palmitic acid stimulated production of the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-6, interleukin-1β and tumour necrosis factor-α through an NF-κB-dependent mechanism, indicating that this major sebum free fatty acid can drive keratinocyte inflammation relevant to acne and follicular hyperkeratinization.
