Degree of Skin Barrier Disruption Affects Lipid Organization in Regenerated Stratum Corneum

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica, 2018
Previously, a skin barrier repair model was developed to examine the effect of formulations on the lipid properties of compromised skin. In this model, the lipid organization mimics that of several skin diseases with impaired skin barrier and less dense ...

GelMA‐based 3D spheroids recapitulate transcriptomic and functional hallmarks of myeloid sarcoma

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GelMA 5% hydrogels support the formation of myeloid leukemia spheroids that recapitulate MS‐specific features, including G1 arrest, apoptosis, and ECM‐driven transcriptomic reprogramming. The 3D model mimicked soft‐tissue‐like stiffness and oxygen conditions, and transcriptomic convergence with primary MS samples confirmed its utility as a preclinical ...

Recurrent Hypothermia and Autonomic Dysfunction Secondary to Shapiro Syndrome

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 44‐year‐old man presented with recurrent hypothermia, diaphoresis and hypertension. Extensive investigation for infectious, inflammatory, metabolic and endocrine aetiologies was negative. MR scan of the brain demonstrated no lesions but revealed callosal dysgenesis, consistent with Shapiro syndrome.

Re‐Purposing Sapropterin (Kuvan) for ACTA2‐Related Multisystemic Smooth Muscle Dysfunction Syndrome: A Translational Mechanistic and First‐In‐Human Therapeutic Report

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome (MSMDS) is an ultra‐rare, ACTA2‐related disorder characterized by severe cerebrovascular disease, aortic aneurysms, and smooth muscle dysfunction. Using molecular dynamics simulations and in silico drug screening, we identified that sapropterin dihydrochloride (Kuvan) is a candidate capable of ...

Noninvasive evaluation of the barrier properties of the skin [PDF]

open access: yesСаратовский научно-медицинский журнал, 2014
Skin as an organ of protection covers the body and accomplishes multiple defensive functions. The intact skin represents a barrier to the uncontrolled loss of water, proteins, and plasma components from the organism.

Delta-5® oil, containing the anti-inflammatory fatty acid sciadonic acid, improves skin barrier function in a skin irritation model in healthy female subjects

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2022
Background Sciadonic acid (SA) is an anti-inflammatory fatty acid displacing arachidonic acid (ARA) from specific phospholipid pools, thus modulating downstream pro-inflammatory lipid mediators.

Protective Effect of Peony (Paeonia ostii) Flower Extract Against Tape Stripping-Induced Skin Barrier Impairment in Mice

open access: yesMolecules
Background: Skin barrier dysfunction leads to increased transepidermal water loss (TEWL), inflammation, and compromised skin protection. While Paeonia ostii (peony) flowers are recognized in traditional Chinese medicine for their reducing melanin ...

Cumulative Social Disadvantage and Disease Activity in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: A Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance Registry Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Social determinants of health (SDOH) contribute to juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) disparities, but most studies have assessed SDOH independently rather than cumulatively across individual, family, and neighborhood levels. Using a socioecological framework, we investigated the relationship among cumulative social disadvantage ...

Systematic characterization of the barrier function of diverse ex vivo models of damaged human skin

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
BackgroundThe skin barrier plays a crucial role in protecting our body against external agents. Disruption of this barrier’s function leads to increased susceptibility to infections and dermatological diseases.
