February 2016 in “British journal of pharmacology” This study found that SIRT1 negatively regulates fibroblast activation and excessive scar formation, suggesting it may be a promising drug target for treating hypertrophic scars.
April 2018 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that age-related changes in scalp dermal fibroblasts, including increased MMP-1 and reduced ECM components, may significantly affect the hair follicle environment and contribute to hair aging.
July 2024 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that topically applied melatonin exerts significant anti-aging effects on human scalp skin ex vivo, including increased SIRT1 expression and reduced mTORC1 pathway activity.
November 2022 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study reported that an ex vivo organ culture system effectively induced aging-related changes in healthy human skin, allowing testing of senolytics like tretinoin, resveratrol, and caffeine.
March 2024 in “World Academy of Sciences Journal” This narrative review explores how exercise might help maintain skin homeostasis disrupted by protein deficiency, potentially by promoting processes like increased collagen synthesis and stimulating anti-inflammatory effects, though the exact mechanisms are not entirely understood.
