3D-Printed lesion-conformal light-guiding patches for precise and personalized psoriasis phototherapy.
Biomaterials science · 2026
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder marked by epidermal hyperplasia and hyperkeratosis, with lesions presenting highly irregular geometric patterns and a discrete distribution. Traditional phototherapy, lacking spatial selectivity, often causes radiation damage to surrounding healthy tissue, thereby limiting treatment dosage and frequency. In this study, we developed… Read on PubMed →
TiO2 nanoparticle-embedded starch-tannin biocomposites with efficient UV-shielding and ROS elimination as Pickering emulsifier for bio-safe sunscreen.
International journal of biological macromolecules · 2026
Inorganic nanoparticles with excellent anti-ultraviolet ability such as titanium dioxide (TiO2) are extensively utilized in sunscreens to protect against UV-induced skin photodamage and carcinogenesis. However, conventional TiO2 nanoparticles exhibit inherent photocatalytic activity that generates harmful reactive oxygen species (ROS), which limits their applications as sunscreen. In this work, we… Read on PubMed →
Enhancing Photoprotection: Assessing Visible Light Photoprotection in Tinted Inorganic Sunscreens.
Photodermatology, photoimmunology & photomedicine · 2026
BACKGROUND: Visible light (VL, 400-700 nm) and long wavelength UVA1 (VL + UVA1, 370-700 nm) have been reported to cause erythema in light skin phototypes, Fitzpatrick skin types I-III (FST I-III), and to exacerbate pigmentary dermatologic conditions (e.g., melasma, hyperpigmentation, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation) in individuals with dark skin phototypes (FST IV-VI). Until recently, limited… Read on PubMed →
