The Epidermal Barrier Structure and Function of Re-Harvested Skin from Non-Scalp Donor Sites

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Surgery, 2023
Aim The aim of this study was to explore the epidermal barrier structure and function of re-harvested skin from non-scalp donor sites. Methods Six patients with large-area deep burns who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were subjected to split ...

The Effect of Sunscreens on the Skin Barrier

open access: yesLife, 2022
Transepidermal water-loss (TEWL), stratum-corneum hydration (SCH), erythema, elasticity, pH and melanin, are parameters of the epidermal barrier function and skin homeostasis that objectively indicate the integrity of the skin barrier. Sunscreens are necessary to protect people from skin cancer, but could modify the skin barrier function. Nevertheless,

Skin Microbiome Composition and Key Factors of its Barrier Function

open access: yesВопросы современной педиатрии, 2023
The skin is the largest organ of the human body, it creates protective barrier between the internal and external environment. Skin barrier damage may result in homeostasis imbalance, inflammation, or bacterial infection.

Lysosphingolipids in ceramide-deficient skin lipid models

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research
Ceramides are key components of the skin's permeability barrier. In atopic dermatitis, pathological hydrolysis of ceramide precursors - glucosylceramides and sphingomyelin - into lysosphingolipids, specifically glucosylsphingosine (GS) and sphingosine ...

Revealing the Correlation between Altered Skin Lipids Composition and Skin Disorders

open access: yesCosmetics, 2021
Human skin layers serve as a barrier between the body and the environment, by preventing water loss and blocking the entry of chemicals, allergens, and microbes.

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Autophagy: Guardian of Skin Barrier

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Autophagy is a major degradation pathway that removes harmful intracellular substances to maintain homeostasis. Various stressors, such as starvation and oxidative stress, upregulate autophagy, and the dysregulation of autophagy is associated with ...
