Background: Rosacea represents a chronic inflammatory dermatosis with potential systemic manifestations. While neuroimmune dysregulation and systemic inflammation are implicated in its pathogenesis, comprehensive proteomic profiling remains unexplored.

Objective: To characterize serum proteomic signatures and identify molecular endotypes in rosacea.

N6-methyladenosine (m6A), as the most common RNA modification at the post-transcriptional level, plays a role in various pathophysiological processes. However, its underlying mechanism in skin aging remains enigmatic. Here, we identified that fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) serves as a protective factor against skin aging.

Although exposure to hard water is associated with various inflammatory skin conditions, the specific relationship between hard water and psoriasis has not been clearly defined. We analyzed data from 486,414 participants in the UK Biobank cohort to explore the association between domestic hard water exposure and the incidence of psoriasis. Domestic water hardness, measured in calcium carbonate concentration, was obtained in 2005 from local water providers in Wales, Scotland, and England.

TFPI2 is known to regulate the proliferation of various cell types and tumor tissues; however, its role in the process of skin aging has not been elucidated. In this study, we identified TFPI2 as a potential antagonist of aging. Our findings indicate that TFPI2 expression is downregulated in aging skin tissues and senescent human dermal fibroblasts and that the depletion of TFPI2 accelerates the senescence of human dermal fibroblasts and skin aging.
