Novel Exosomal miRNA Expression in Irradiated Human Keratinocytes.

The epidermis, the outer layer of the skin, relies on a delicate balance of cell growth and keratinocyte differentiation for its function and renewal. Recent research has shed light on exosomes' role in facilitating skin communication by transferring molecules like miRNAs, which regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally. Additionally, these factors lead to skin aging through oxidative stress caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS).
