Research: Dysregulated Pathways Linked to Acne

While acne involves excess production of lipids in the hair follicles, keratinocyte hyperkeratinization, bacterial interaction and a host of inflammatory responses involving macrophages, little has been understood about the cascade of dysregulated signaling pathways that results in acne-affected skin until now. Using cutting-edge bioinformatics techniques for gene identification and sequencing, Min Deng, PhD, in the George W. […]
