Skin stress and repair studies

The fine-dust paper comes first. The other entries bring different cells, tissues and experimental tasks to the discussion.

Skin-cell experiments

The fine-dust study in human keratinocytes anchors the environmental-stress essay. The keratinocyte signalling paper and fragment-dissection experiment are considered together in skin signals. The alpha-MSH review supplies the background on KPV’s relationship to the full hormone.

Experimental repair

The rabbit corneal study, KPV hydrogel paper and cutaneous wound-healing review accompany repair models. I value the differences among them: a specific coverage outcome, a material carrying a peptide and a review of a wider field.
