Fig. 2. Gender differences exist in sebum lipid mediator and fatty acid profiles.

Fig. 2.

Female subjects demonstrate decreased sebum concentrations of all detected saturated and monounsaturated non-esterified fatty acids, as well as lipoxygenase-derived alcohol and ketone metabolites of linoleate, arachidonate, eicosapentanoate and docosahexanoate. Female subjects also demonstrate increased sebum concentrations of C24 ceramide and dihydroceramide. Differences were tested by one-way MANOVA with adjustments for AD status, and both the raw P value and the P value adjusted for multiple comparisons by the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure (q = 0.2) are reported. Analytes were clustered by hierarchical clustering using Ward’s method. Data are reported as Mean ± SEM.
