research Aberrant Wnt Signaling Induces Comedo-Like Changes in the Murine Upper Hair Follicle
Overactive Wnt signaling in mouse skin stem cells causes acne-like cysts and shrinking oil glands, which some treatments can partially fix.
research The senescence-like activity of BMS-470539 is associated with anti-fibrotic actions in models of dermal fibrosis
The study explores the use of the melanocortin compound BMS-470539 to target fibrosis by inducing a 'senescence-like' state in human dermal fibroblasts, particularly from systemic sclerosis patients. This state is characterized by proliferation arrest and reduced pro-inflammatory activity, leading to the downregulation of fibrosis markers. In vitro and in vivo models, including a bleomycin-induced skin fibrosis murine model, demonstrated that BMS-470539 effectively reduced skin thickness and fibrosis markers without causing additional fibrosis when administered intradermally. The findings suggest a promising therapeutic strategy to manage fibrosis and potentially other diseases with shared pathogenic mechanisms, such as arthritis.
