Development and characterization of dibenzalacetone-loaded oleogels as a potential photoprotective agents for sunscreen formulations.
Scientific reports · 2026
Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation induces erythema, accelerates photoaging, and increases the risk of skin cancer. Sunscreens are the primary strategy for preventing UV-induced skin damage; however, the effective topical delivery of photoprotective agents is often limited by formulation challenges. Dibenzalacetone (DBA), a chalcone derivative with broad UVA and UVB absorption, exhibits… Read on PubMed →
Konjac Ceramide Induces Semaphorin 3A Expression via the MAPK/AP-1 Signaling Axis and RORα in Normal Human Epidermal Keratinocytes.
Biomolecules · 2026
Epidermal hyperinnervation is a major cause of intractable itch in barrier dysfunction conditions such as atopic dermatitis. Keratinocyte-derived semaphorin 3A (Sema3A) suppresses epidermal hyperinnervation, but its expression is markedly reduced in barrier-disrupted skin. Although konjac ceramide (kCer) has been reported to act as a Sema3A-like ligand, the mechanisms by which it regulates Sema3A… Read on PubMed →
Pasteurized Akkermansia muciniphila HB05 improves ultraviolet B-induced skin dehydration and barrier dysfunction in SKH-1 hairless mice.
Biomedicine & pharmacotherapy = Biomedecine & pharmacotherapie · 2026
Ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation is a major environmental stressor that disrupts epidermal hydration, impairs barrier integrity, and accelerates photoaging through oxidative and inflammatory mechanisms. Although the metabolic and immunomodulatory benefits of Akkermansia muciniphila have been extensively investigated, its role in skin health remains largely unknown. In particular, the effects of… Read on PubMed →
