Rosacea is an inflammatory skin disorder characterized by the release of mediators from keratinocytes, which are thought to play a crucial role in its pathogenesis. Despite incidence approximately 5.5%, rosacea associated with poor quality life. However, as pathogenesis remains enigmatic, treatment options limited. To investigate and explore new therapeutic strategies. Transcriptome data patients combined immunohistochemical staining were used activation STAT3 rosacea. The was subsequently...

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder whose pathogenesis unclear. Here, several lines of evidence were provided to demonstrate that mTORC1 signaling hyperactivated in the skin, especially epidermis, both rosacea patients and mouse model rosacea-like inflammation. Both deletion epithelium inhibition by its specific inhibitors can block development inflammation LL37-induced model. Conversely, hyperactivation aggravated features. Mechanistically, regulates cathelicidin through...

Rosacea is a facial chronic inflammatory skin disease with dysfunction of immune and vascular system. Artemisinin (ART), an anti-malaria drug, was reported to have several effects including anti-inflammation anti-angiogenesis activities. However, the role ART on rosacea remains unclear.To investigate molecular mechanism rosacea.In rosacea-like mouse model, phenotype lesions evaluated by redness score, biomarkers were analyzed qPCR, infiltration cells assessed IHC analysis immunofluorescence....

Hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) are maintained in a quiescent state until activated to grow, but the mechanisms that reactivate HFSC reservoir unclear. Here, we find loss of Sirt7 mice impedes hair life-cycle transition from telogen anagen phase, resulting delay growth. Conversely, overexpression during phase facilitated HSFC entry and accelerated Mechanistically, is upregulated HFSCs telogen-to-anagen transition, HFSC-specific knockout (Sirt7f/f ;K15-Cre) exhibit similar growth delay. At...

Abstract Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder whose pathophysiological mechanism remains largely unknown. Although recent studies have revealed the hypersensitivity of towards chemical, thermal and biological stimuli, there no direct molecular evidence suggesting barrier impaired in rosacea. In this study, we demonstrated that mRNA levels most claudins ( CLDN ), main components tight junctions determining major paracellular pathway between epithelial cells, were lowered lesional...

Rosacea is significantly associated with dementia, particularly Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the common underlying molecular mechanism connecting these two diseases remains limited. This study aimed to reveal regulatory networks and identify potential therapeutic drugs for rosacea AD. There were 747 overlapped DEGs (ol-DEGs) that detected in AD rosacea, enriched inflammation-, metabolism-, apoptosis-related pathways. Using TF network analysis, 37 TFs target genes identified as hub...

Abstract Rosacea is a common chronic skin disorder of unknown etiology. While population prevalence rates range 0.2–22% in Europe and North America, China currently undetermined. We conducted large population‐based case–control study to determine the present epidemiological status rosacea China, involving 10 095 participants aged 0–100 years (mean age, 35.5 ± 19.1; 50.5% female). A census among 15 communities Changsha south central was with examination by board‐certified dermatologists....

Aquaporin 3 (AQP3) is a protein implicated in skin hydration. AQP3 null mice have relatively dry skin, reduced elasticity, and delayed recovery of barrier function after removal the stratum corneum which also present old people. A feature aging change both water content skin. We investigated expression aquaporin non sun-exposed human normal keratinocytes fibroblasts from different age groups to further understand relationship between intrinsic aging.We aquaporin3 epidermal (NHEK) fibroblast...

Background The epidemiologic profiles of chronic urticaria (CU) vary considerably among regions, and few such data are available from China. Methods We performed a multicenter open questionnaire investigation about the clinical laboratory features CU, defined as recurrent wheals with/without angioedema lasting for ≥6 weeks, 3027 patients. Results Female preponderance was observed (female/male ratio, 1.46 : 1). mean age at diagnosis 34.7 ± 13.8 years, disease duration 18.5 46.1 months (range,...
