Discovery of an Adaptive Neuroimmune Response Driving Itch and Fast Tick Removal with Implications for Preventing Pathogen Transmission

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Doehl et al. discovered an adaptive neuroimmune mechanism that induces itch in tick‐exposed guinea pigs, enabling rapid tick removal. This itch‐induced tick removal (IITR) is mediated by an adaptive cellular immune response and is independent of IgG, IgE, or TRPV1.

Advances in polymeric nano-delivery systems targeting hair follicles for the treatment of acne

Drug Delivery
Acne is a common chronic inflammatory disorder of the sebaceous gland in the hair follicle. Commonly used external medications cause skin irritation, and the transdermal capacity is weak, making it difficult to penetrate the cuticle skin barrier.

Bacteria Display Differential Growth and Adhesion Characteristics on Human Hair Shafts

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Apart from the skin surface, hair represents a significant tissue component with a capacity of bacterial interactions. New information can be obtained about hair function through the characterization of bacterial adherence, colonization, and responses to

Deformation Driven Suction Cups: A Mechanics‐Based Approach to Wearable Electronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Deformation‐driven suction cups enable robust, reversible adhesion of wearable electronics to human skin spanning wide mechanical compliance, without adhesives or tight straps. By integrating mechanics modeling, experiments, and contact mechanics theory, this work reveals how cup geometry, substrate compliance, and interfacial adhesion govern suction ...

Compensatory Interplay Between Clarin‐1 and Clarin‐2 Deafness‐Associated Proteins Governs Phenotypic Variability in Hearing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Functional compensation between clarin‐1 and clarin‐2 in cochlear hair cells. Hearing loss associated with CLRN1 mutations shows striking phenotypic variability; however, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study reveals that clarin‐1 and clarin‐2 function cooperatively in cochlear hair cells to sustain mechanoelectrical ...

Cockroach‐Derived Leucokinin VIII Peptide Accelerates Diabetic Skin Wound Healing by Enhancing Keratinocyte Filopodia Formation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the cockroach‐derived peptide leucokinin VIII as a potent accelerator of diabetic wound healing. By activating the FAK‐ACTG1 axis, the peptide drives keratinocyte migration and filopodia formation. Delivered via a developed PLGA‐PEG‐PLGA thermosensitive hydrogel for sustained release, this approach significantly hastens wound ...
