Kallikrein proteases (KPs) are vital enzymes involved in the formation of dermatosomes and regulated by body's internal inhibitors. Maintaining a balance between KPs their inhibitors is essential for promoting healthy scalp. The scalp specifically contains two KPs: human kallikrein (hK) 5 hK7, which encoded respective genes. In addition, serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type (SPINK5) gene encodes lympho-epithelial Kazal-type‒related (LEKTI), effectively inhibits both hK5 hK7. normal desquamation process relies on availability activity along with regulation LEKTI.

This review article explores the potential applications of chitosan, a natural polysaccharide derived from crustacean shells, in treatment seborrheic dermatitis (SD) and other skin diseases. SD is common chronic inflammatory condition characterized by erythema, scaling, itching, an oily appearance, predominantly affecting areas rich sebaceous glands. Current treatments, including antifungal agents, corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors, offer symptomatic relief but have limitations long-term use due to side effects resistance issues. Chitosan exhibits excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, broad-spectrum antibacterial properties, making it promising candidate for treatment. highlights chitosan's multifunctional properties such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, sebum-regulating, barrier-enhancing effects, which are closely related pathogenesis SD. Additionally, summarizes chitosan conditions, wound healing, infectious diseases, atopic dermatitis, demonstrating its broad therapeutic potential. Through this comprehensive evaluation, aims provide theoretical foundation clinical research on support development new, safer, more effective options various conditions.

Metabolic disorders, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity, and metabolic syndrome, are systemic conditions that profoundly impact the skin microbiota, a dynamic community of bacteria, fungi, viruses, mites essential for cutaneous health. Dysbiosis caused by dysfunction contributes to barrier disruption, immune dysregulation, increased susceptibility inflammatory diseases, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, acne. For instance, hyperglycemia in T2DM leads formation advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which bind receptor AGEs (RAGE) on keratinocytes cells, promoting oxidative stress inflammation while facilitating Staphylococcus aureus colonization dermatitis. Similarly, obesity-induced dysregulation sebaceous lipid composition increases saturated fatty acids, favoring pathogenic strains Cutibacterium acnes, produce metabolites exacerbate Advances metabolomics microbiome sequencing have unveiled critical biomarkers, such as short-chain acids microbial signatures, predictive therapeutic outcomes. example, elevated butyrate levels psoriasis been associated with reduced Th17-mediated inflammation, presence specific Lactobacillus has shown potential modulate tolerance Furthermore, machine learning models increasingly used integrate multi-omics data, enabling personalized interventions.
