Understanding exosomes in facial esthetics and skin aging

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Skin aging is a multifactorial process mediated by intrinsic (genetic and metabolic) and extrinsic (environmental) factors leading to functional and structural deterioration, including wrinkles, loss of collagen and elastin, as well as various pigmentation disorders.

Sex‐dependent effects of a high‐fat diet‐induced obesity model on cerebrovascular health and brain metabolism

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Mid‐life obesity is a major risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases, with mitochondrial and cerebrovascular dysfunction considered key mediators. Lysine acetylation is a reversible post‐translational modification that regulates several mitochondrial metabolic and biochemical processes.

Variation in glabrous skin physiology across anatomical locations on the human hand

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We compared the physiological and morphological characteristics of glabrous and hairy skin for different anatomical positions in a study with 60 participants (1). Non‐invasive techniques were applied to study skin hydration, skin deformability and stratum corneum thickness (2).

Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.
Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...
