    TLDR AHR ligands could treat inflammatory skin diseases.
    This research explores the role of AHR signaling in maintaining the epidermal barrier, focusing on keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation. The study investigates novel AHR ligands as potential therapeutics for inflammatory skin diseases, analyzing their effects in vitro and in vivo. By understanding AHR signaling mechanisms, the research identifies new interaction partners for AHR-driven keratinocyte differentiation and develops methods for gene knockout and skin barrier function measurement. Experimental studies on healthy human volunteers reveal AHR's role in the inflammatory response, highlighting the therapeutic potential of AHR ligands for treating inflammatory skin conditions.
