Despite the distinct microbial and chemical milieu on topographically distinct skin areas, the immunological and permeability barrier of the healthy skin has been previously considered to be unified on the whole body surface. We provided the first evidence that sebaceous gland rich (SGR) and sebaceous gland poor (SGP) regions exhibit a characteristic innate and adaptive immune

The microbial community exhibits remarkable diversity on topographically distinct skin regions, which may be accompanied by differences in skin i |

Antimicrobial and immunomodulatory peptides (AMPs) are considered as the key players in the maintenance of skin barrier functions. Here, we devel | POSTER

The microbiota composition and chemical milieu have been shown to prominently differ in topographically distinct healthy skin areas, and recently, our workgroup identified differences in the immune activity of distinct regions as well. As a continuation of our work, we aimed to study the barrier function and compare the expression levels of major permeability barrier components

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, inflammatory skin disease characterized by significant barrier damage. Since the regulation and maintenance | POSTER
