March 2016 in “Experimental Dermatology” This study found that a hypomorphic mutation in the Hr gene contributes to the development of diet-induced pruritic atopic skin in mice, particularly when combined with dietary deficiencies of polyunsaturated fatty acids and starch.
February 2024 in “Advanced Science” This study highlights that a novel radially aligned nanofiber scaffold with dual growth factor gradients significantly enhances wound healing, promoting cell migration, epidermal regeneration, and angiogenesis, ultimately leading to improved wound closure, immune regulation, and tissue remodeling compared to other groups.
January 2024 in “Burns and trauma” In a rat scalp expansion model, this study found that activating autophagy with rapamycin enhanced skin regeneration during tissue expansion by increasing expanded skin area, epidermis and dermis thicknesses, cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and other regenerative factors, whereas blocking autophagy reversed these effects.
March 2024 in “IP Indian journal of clinical and experimental dermatology” In this study conducted at a tertiary care center, rural elderly patients often exhibited skin conditions like wrinkling, generalized pruritus, xerosis, eczematous skin conditions, and psoriasis, highlighting the need for better health education on skin care, early diagnosis, and management.
