Experimental Drug Reverses Hair Loss and Skin Damage linked to Fatty Diet, shows new study in mice

Mechanism of action of lactosylceramide in skin inflammation and restoration by the use of D-PDMP. Feeding a western diet raises the level of oxidized phospholipid which activates Lactosylceramide synthase (GalT-V) to generate lactosylceramide which produces reactive oxygen species-a pro-oxidant environment. Lactosylceramide also reacts with infiltrating neutrophils to activate phospholipase A-2, thus releasing arachidonic acid, eicosanoids and contributing to inflammation. This cycle of events can be broken by the judicious use of D-PDMP/BPD.
