Filaggrin and Atopic Dermatitis: Clinical and Pathogenetic Parallels and Therapeutic Possibilities
Atopic dermatitis (AtD) is multifactorial inflammatory skin disease, one of the aspects of its pathogenesis is epidermal barrier dysfunction. Early development of AtD is associated with filaggrin dysfunction.

Functional and proteomic analysis of a full thickness filaggrin-deficient skin organoid model [version 2; peer review: 3 approved] [PDF]
Background: Atopic eczema is an itchy inflammatory disorder characterised by skin barrier dysfunction. Loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding filaggrin (FLG) are a major risk factor, but the mechanisms by which filaggrin haploinsufficiency leads

Filaggrin and tight junction proteins are crucial for IL-13-mediated esophageal barrier dysfunction
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an allergy-mediated disease that is accompanied by IL-13 overexpression and an impaired esophageal barrier. Filaggrin (FLG) and tight junction (TJ) proteins are considered to contribute to epithelial barrier function ...

Cannabidiol Mitigates Pollution-Induced Inflammatory, Oxidative, and Barrier Damage in Ex Vivo Human Skin [PDF]
Airborne particulate matter (PM) is a major environmental pollutant that accelerates skin aging, inflammation, and barrier impairment. Cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive phytocannabinoid derived from Cannabis sativa, has shown anti-inflammatory and ...
