Edible Bird’s Nest, an Asian Health Food Supplement, Possesses Moisturizing Effect by Regulating Expression of Filaggrin in Skin Keratinocyte

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Edible bird’s nest (EBN) has been consumed as a Chinese delicacy for hundreds of years; the functions of which have been proposed to prevent lung disease, strengthen immune response, and restore skin youthfulness. To support the skin function of EBN, the

Filaggrin and Atopic Dermatitis: Clinical and Pathogenetic Parallels and Therapeutic Possibilities

open access: yesВопросы современной педиатрии, 2021
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.

Pathogenic Role of Circulating Citrullinated Antigens and Anti-Cyclic Monoclonal Citrullinated Peptide Antibodies in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
We examined whether it is possible to directly detect citrullinated antigens in the serum of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients using a monoclonal antibody (mAb) designed to be specific for citrullinated peptides. In order to confirm the potential of the

Modern View on the Role of Epidermal Barrier in Atopic Phenotype Development in Children

open access: yesВопросы современной педиатрии, 2020
Epidermal barrier is one is one of the most important structures of the skin, it performs protective function, ensure internal environment constancy by selective ions and molecules transport and by transepidermal water loss regulation.

Filaggrin and filaggrin 2 processing are linked together through skin aspartic acid protease activation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Skin aspartic acid protease (SASPase) is believed to be a key enzyme involved in filaggrin processing during epidermal terminal differentiation. Since little is known about the regulation of SASPase function, the aim of this study was to identify ...

Expression of keratins, epidermal proteins and inflammatory cells in superficial pemphigus dogs [PDF]

open access: yesBulgarian Journal of Veterinary Medicine, 2018
Superficial pemphigus in dogs is an autoimmune skin disorder. The disease is characterised by the binding of auto-antibodies to desmosomal molecules including desmocollin-1, a major auto-antigen in dogs.

1-Iodohexadecane Alleviates 2,4-Dinitrochlorobenzene-Induced Atopic Dermatitis in Mice: Possible Involvements of the Skin Barrier and Mast Cell SNARE Proteins

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory dermal disease with symptoms that include inflammation, itching, and dry skin. 1-Iodohexadecane is known as a component of Chrysanthemum boreale essential oil that has an inhibitory effect on AD-like ...

Associations of filaggrin gene loss-of-function variants and human papillomavirus-related cancer and pre-cancer in Danish adults. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Filaggrin proteins are expressed in the skin, oral cavity, oesophagus, and cervical mucose. Loss-of-function mutations in the filaggrin gene (FLG) reduce filaggrin expression and cause an impaired skin barrier function.

Autophagy generates citrullinated peptides in human synoviocytes: a possible trigger for anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
OBJECTIVES: Autophagy may represent a functional processing event that creates a substrate for autoreactivity. In particular, autophagy may play a role in the pathogenesis of RA, since autophagy is a key cellular event involved in the generation of ...

Lowering relative humidity level increases epidermal protein deimination and drives human filaggrin breakdown [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dermatological Science, 2017
Deimination (also known as citrullination), the conversion of arginine in a protein to citrulline, is catalyzed by a family of enzymes called peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs). Three PADs are expressed in the epidermis, one of their targets being filaggrin.
