Acne patients' skin, both with and without lesions, shows a strong immune response and higher antimicrobial activity.
research The Paradox of p53: What, How, and Why?
The p53 protein has complex, sometimes contradictory functions, including tumor suppression and promoting cell survival.
research Structural and biochemical changes underlying a keratoderma-like phenotype in mice lacking suprabasal AP1 transcription factor function
Inhibiting AP1 in mice skin causes structural changes and weakens the skin barrier.
research Regulatory T-Cells: Potential Regulator of Tissue Repair and Regeneration
Regulatory T-cells are important for healing and regenerating tissues in various organs by controlling immune responses and aiding stem cells.
research Estrogens and aging skin
Estrogen therapy can reduce skin aging but has cancer risks.
