This study found that UV exposure in human skin induces IL-10 production by macrophages, while Langerhans cells are depleted and their IL-12 production is downregulated.

This study found that overexpression of PKCepsilon in mouse epidermis was associated with increased susceptibility to metastatic squamous cell carcinoma, potentially through a mechanism involving tumor necrosis factor-alpha.

This study found that RSPO1 mutations in patients with a 46XX disorder of sexual development contribute to impaired skin integrity and increased risk of squamous cell carcinoma in areas subject to friction.

This study found that women with PCOS exhibited higher levels of depression, tension induction, and impaired stress coping strategies compared to healthy controls, with these psychological issues correlating with hyperandrogenism but not with central obesity or insulin resistance.

This study found that the ashwagandha extracts ASH-Ext1 and ASH-Ext2 show different pharmacological activities in cell models due to their distinct withanolide proportions, highlighting the need for standardized extraction protocols to ensure consistent therapeutic efficacy.

This study found that combining natural extracts significantly boosted the stem cell functions of dermal papilla cells by enhancing β-catenin stability, promoting hair growth potential in vitro.

In this study, researchers developed a 3D chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol-tannic acid nanofiber sponge that demonstrated effective hemostatic, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties without antibiotics, accelerated wound healing in vivo, and showed high biocompatibility with L929 cells, highlighting its potential as a wound dressing for clinical use.

This review highlights that pomegranate exhibits promising beneficial effects in preclinical and clinical studies for cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular diseases, though further research is needed on its bioavailability and metabolites for effective therapeutic use.

This ex vivo study reported that melatonin significantly improved certain aging biomarkers in aged human skin, including reduced mTORC1 activity, increased fibrillin-1, and enhanced collagen and elastic fiber organization, though other key biomarkers remained unchanged.

This study explored the use of dexamethasone-loaded polymer hybrid nanoparticles in a xanthan gum hydrogel for treating alopecia areata, finding that freeze drying with sucrose influenced particle size, release, and permeation, but had no impact on cytotoxicity or anti-inflammatory efficacy in human keratinocytes.

This study concluded that extracts from fermented pumpkin peel and pulp, processed with Lactobacillus strains and kombucha, may serve as multifunctional cosmetic ingredients, offering antioxidant protection, anti-aging, and skin regeneration benefits by demonstrating cytoprotective effects and reducing inflammatory cytokines in cell assays.

This review evaluates traditional uses, phytochemical profiles, and pharmacological activities of Mediterranean Erica species, revealing the wide range of bioactive compounds and highlighting their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activities.
