Article Abstract
Skin aging is a complex, continuous, multifactorial process resulting from cumulative morphological and functional changes in the skin over time. This happens because of two processes: intrinsic and extrinsic skin aging. Intrinsic skin aging occurs naturally over time and reflects each person's genetic makeup, or heredity. Extrinsic skin aging, on the other hand, is due to exposomal factors, such as solar radiation, air pollution, tobacco or nutrition, being the first two the most important of all. Exposure to air pollutants, primarily gases such as ground-level ozone and particulate matter, can accelerate the process via four key mechanisms: reactive oxygen species generation, inflammation, skin microbiome disruption, and aryl hydrocarbon receptor activation. Regarding solar radiation, all wavelengths reaching the Earth's surface have an impact on the skin, having a synergistic effect with air pollution ("photo-pollution"). Here, we discuss this phenomenon and mitigation strategies, including sunscreens, cosmetics with film-forming plus antioxidant ingredients, and oral supplementation.

Background: Keratinocytes form the skin's first line of defense, not only serving as a physical barrier but also actively communicating with immune cells and sensory neurons.
Objective: To elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which keratinocytes contribute to barrier dysfunction and neuroimmune activation in atopic dermatitis (AD).
Methods: CB2R expression was assessed by RNA-seq, qRT-PCR, RNAscope fluorescence, and western blot.

The nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome detects a broad spectrum of pathogen- and damage-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs and DAMPs), initiating inflammatory responses through caspase-1 activation and interleukin (IL)-1β/IL-18 release. Dysregulated NLRP3 activation is implicated in a range of diseases, including infectious diseases, autoinflammatory disorders, metabolic disorders, and cancer, making it an attractive therapeutic target. Here, we identify ZAP-180013 as a potent and selective small-molecule inhibitor of NLRP3 through high-throughput chemical screening.

Glycerol and glycerol-3-phosphate are key metabolites at the intersection of carbohydrate, lipid and energy metabolism. Their production and usage are organismal and cell type specific. Glycerol has unique physicochemical properties enabling it to function as an osmolyte, protein structure stabilizer, antimicrobial and antifreeze agent, important to preservation of many biological functions.

Aging is characterized by a gradual decline in the functionality of all the organs and tissues, leading to various diseases. As the global population ages, the urgency to develop effective anti-aging strategies becomes increasingly critical due to the growing severity of associated health problems. Immunotherapy offers novel and promising approaches to combat aging by utilizing approaches including vaccines, antibodies, and cytokines to target specific aging-related molecules and pathways.

Previous studies have revealed that skin T cells accumulate and maintain immune responses in the elderly. However, we questioned why these functional T cells fail to recognize and eliminate malignant cells, making elderly skin more prone to developing malignant tumors. To address this question, we examined the overall skin microenvironment in aging using the Nanostring nCounter system and 10x Xenium digital spatial RNA sequencing.
