January 2019 in “European journal of histochemistry” This study found that in bovine skin, leptin and its receptor are expressed in the epidermis and hair follicles, suggesting a role in epidermis growth and hair follicle cycling through paracrine and autocrine mechanisms.
January 2016 in “UNESP Institutional Repository (São Paulo State University)” This study suggests that the phenotype of melasma in women is influenced by structural and cellular changes across the epidermal-melanin unit, not just melanocyte hypertrophy, highlighting potential roles for dermal damage repair and fibroblast senescence.
March 2026 in “Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology” This review suggests that exosomes have potential in dermatology, but their clinical use remains in early development due to challenges in standardization, understanding, and safety.
