An in vitro study of the permeabilities of frozen and reconstituted cattle skin and human skin to levamisole was done. Cattle skin was 400 times more permeable to levamisole from an organic solvent (largely 2-ethoxyethanol) than was human skin. The diffusion coefficient value of levamisole in cattle skin and the partition coefficient value of levamisole from the organic solvent into the skin suggested that a relatively large amount of drug passed through skin appendages such as hair follicles or sweat/sebaceous ducts. Transcellular transport across the stratum corneum was rate-determining in human skin penetration.

Objective: The study investigated effects of peony callus extracts (PCE) on the protective efficacy against Ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced photoageing, using in vitro and in vivo studies. The research focused on PCE's ability to protect against inflammatory factors, DNA damage and accumulation of senescent cells, along with the evaluation of the extract's potential anti-photoageing benefits to skin.

Methods: Human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT cells), mast cells and fibroblasts were used to evaluate the role of PCE in anti-photoageing.

Lithium Bond-Mediated Molecular Cascade Hydrogel for Injury-Free and Repositionable Adhesive Bioelectronic Interfaces.

Adv Mater

March 2025

Key Laboratory of Ocean Energy Utilization and Energy Conservation of Ministry of Education, School of energy and power engineering, Dalian University of Technology, Dalian, 116024, P. R. China.

Flexible bioelectronic interfaces with adhesive properties are essential for advancing modern medicine and human-machine interactions. However, achieving both stable adhesion and non-damaging detachment remains a significant challenge. In this study, a lithium bond-mediated molecular cascade hydrogel (LMCH) for bioelectronic interfaces is designed, which facilitates robust adhesion at the tissue level and permits atraumatic detachment for repositioning as required.

Objective: Contact hypersensitivity (CHS), or allergic contact dermatitis (ACD), is an inflammatory skin disorder characterized by an exaggerated allergic reaction to specific haptens. During this delayed-type allergic reaction, the first contact with the allergen initiates the sensitization phase, forming memory T cells. Upon repeated contact with the hapten, the elicitation phase develops, activating mostly macrophages, cytotoxic T cells, and neutrophilic granulocytes.

Reversing Glycation with a Dietary Supplement Containing Rosemary Extract.

J Clin Aesthet Dermatol

February 2025

Dr. Valacchi is with North Carolina State University, Plants for Human Health Institute in Kannapolis, North Carolina; Kyung Hee University Department of Food and Nutrition in Seoul, Korea; and University of Ferrara Department of Environment and Prevention Science in Ferrara, Italy.

Objective: The authors sought to explore the skin deglycation ability of rosemary extract dietary supplements to support skin health and improve the signs of skin aging.

Methods: A PubMed literature search for English-language articles on rosemary extract effects on glycation and skin aging in clinical and/or preclinical settings was conducted.

Results: Endogenous and exogenous glycative stress and reactive oxygen species lead to the accumulation of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs), accelerating skin aging.

Clinical spectrum and uncommon features of McCune-Albright syndrome in children: a cohort study from a National Referral Center.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne)

March 2025

Hospices Civils de Lyon, Hôpital Femme Mère Enfant, Service d'Endocrinologie Pédiatrique et Pédiatrie Générale, Bron, France.

Introduction: McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is a rare disease caused by somatic gain-of-function variants in the gene that lead to constitutive activation of the G protein alpha subunit (Gsα). Pathologic consequences can involve several tissues. Fibrous dysplasia (FD), café-au-lait skin macules and hyperfunctioning endocrinopathies are classic manifestations.
