ABSTRACT Background Drug‐induced hyperpigmentation accounts for 10%–20% of acquired pigmentary disorders and can be misdiagnosed for other causes such as melasma, post inflammatory changes, or heavy metal deposition. Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa), a Southeast Asian plant with an opioid‐like profile, has been increasingly used in the United States for ...

Targeting the microbiota‐miRNA‐protease axis: A new therapeutic avenue in melanoma
Modulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover is central to melanoma progression and metastasis, driven largely by ECM proteases. This review highlights the epigenetic regulation of ECM proteases by microRNAs and their roles in melanoma growth, invasion, and immune modulation.

A novel approach to target skin photodamage: Topical application of salt inducible kinase inhibitors
UV‐induced photodamage leads to increased DNA damage and elevated MMP levels, which degrade collagen and contribute to wrinkle formation. SLT‐001 and SLT‐008, novel cosmetic ingredients that target salt‐inducible kinase, help reverse this effect by enhancing DNA repair, reducing MMP expression and decreasing erythema, thereby mitigating photodamage ...

Porphyrins, previously linked only to acne inflammation, are now implicated in skin ageing. Their presence correlates with increased melanin, inflammation, and oxidative stress, contributing to premature ageing signs. This study introduces the concept of “Porphyr'ageing,” highlighting the detrimental effects of bacterial metabolites on skin health and ...
