Decoding the Skin’s Hidden Ecosystem: Microbiome and pH Gradients as Therapeutic Frontiers.

Summary

Prof. Amagai will explore the dynamic interplay among the skin’s structural barriers, skin microbiome, and immune response. Special focus will be given to the three-stepwise pH layers of the stratum corneum, how these distinct zones contribute to barrier integrity and regulate key skin functions like desquamation and hydration. By decoding these hidden layers of skin biology, we can unlock new therapeutic strategies that target the skin’s ecosystem to restore health and resilience.
