Bakuchiol: From structural mimicry to systems‐level skin biology
Convergent outcomes, divergent mechanisms: bakuchiol vs. retinol. Bakuchiol exhibits functional convergence with retinol in improving extracellular matrix integrity, epidermal differentiation and barrier function, while operating through distinct mechanisms.

When to consider an inborn error of immunity: clues for physicians
Abstract The term inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) refers to the rapidly expanding group of genetic disorders causing dysregulation of the immune system. With improved genetic testing in recent years, the number of defined IEIs and their range of phenotypic presentations has grown vastly, with more than 550 IEIs now described.

The Potential of Isoprenoids in Adjuvant Cancer Therapy to Reduce Adverse Effects of Statins
The mevalonate pathway provides sterols for membrane structure and nonsterol intermediates for the post-translational modification and membrane anchorage of growth-related proteins, including the Ras, Rac, and Rho GTPase family.

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

Metabolomics Analysis of the Toxic Effects of the Production of Lycopene and Its Precursors
Using cells as microbial factories enables highly specific production of chemicals with many advantages over chemical syntheses. A number of exciting new applications of this approach are in the area of precision metabolic engineering, which focuses on ...

Prostate Cancer and the Mevalonate Pathway
Antineoplastic therapies for prostate cancer (PCa) have traditionally centered around the androgen receptor (AR) pathway, which has demonstrated a significant role in oncogenesis. Nevertheless, it is becoming progressively apparent that therapeutic strategies must diversify their focus due to the emergence of resistance mechanisms that the tumor ...

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and
