January 2025 in “Discovery Medicine” This study found that glycolic acid treatment reduced oxidative stress and inflammation in UV-induced skin photoaging in rats, promoting collagen recovery and reducing photoaging signs, potentially by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt and NF-κB pathways.
June 2025 in “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” In this study, a mouse model with a PIK3CA gain-of-function mutation in Schwann cells revealed unique communication with neighboring cells and a glycolytic shift in peripheral nerves, and early alpelisib treatment significantly improved symptoms, though efficacy declined with delayed administration due to limited drug penetration.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In this study, researchers observed distinct aging signatures in mouse keratinocytes, with increased expression in older mice, and noted relevant pathway changes that were also evident in human skin, suggesting potential insights into intrinsic skin aging.

April 1965 in “Archives of biochemistry and biophysics” This study found that sheep wool follicles actively oxidize acetate and glucose, suggesting the involvement of the TCA cycle for compound synthesis and the potential role of the pentose phosphate pathway in ribose production for RNA and DNA.
