From psoriasis and acne to eczema; from dermatitis to skin cancer - read the latest science news on skin care. en-us Sat, 11 Apr 2026 10:01:18 EDT Sat, 11 Apr 2026 10:01:18 EDT 60 https://www.sciencedaily.com/images/scidaily-logo-rss.png https://www.sciencedaily.com/news/health_medicine/skin_care/ For more science news, visit ScienceDaily. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/03/260303145725.htm Stiff knees and aching hips may seem like an inevitable part of aging, but experts say we’re getting osteoarthritis all wrong. Despite affecting nearly 600 million people worldwide — and potentially a billion by 2050 — the most powerful treatment isn’t surgery or medication. It’s exercise. Movement nourishes cartilage, strengthens muscles, reduces inflammation, and even reshapes the biological processes driving joint damage. Wed, 04 Mar 2026 16:35:02 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/03/260303145725.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/03/260302030648.htm Researchers are developing a two-part therapy for type 1 diabetes: lab-made insulin-producing cells paired with custom-engineered immune cells that protect them. The goal is to stop the immune system from destroying transplanted cells — without using immunosuppressive drugs. Backed by $1 million in funding, the team hopes to create a ready-to-use treatment that could work even for people who have had diabetes for years. The approach could transform how the disease is treated.

Tumor tissue contained about 2.5 times more plastic than nearby healthy prostate tissue. Scientists say this is the first Western study to directly measure plastic particles in prostate tumors. More research is needed, but the findings suggest microplastic exposure could play a role in cancer development. Wed, 25 Feb 2026 01:28:19 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/02/260225001250.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/02/260221000255.htm Chronic wounds often spiral out of control because oxygen can’t reach the deepest layers of injured tissue. A new gel developed at UC Riverside delivers a continuous flow of oxygen right where it’s needed most, using a tiny battery-powered system. In high-risk mice, wounds healed in weeks instead of worsening. The innovation could dramatically reduce amputations—and may even open doors for lab-grown organs. Sun, 22 Feb 2026 08:14:18 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/02/260221000255.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/02/260204121549.htm Researchers have figured out how psoriasis can quietly turn into joint disease for some patients. Immune cells formed in inflamed skin can travel through the blood and reach the joints, where they sometimes trigger inflammation. The key difference lies in the joint’s ability to keep those cells in check. This insight could help doctors identify warning signs early and prevent lasting joint damage. Thu, 05 Feb 2026 10:44:32 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/02/260204121549.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/01/260120015650.htm Scientists have uncovered a surprising reason why some chronic wounds refuse to heal, even when treated with antibiotics. A common bacterium found in long-lasting wounds does not just resist drugs. It actively releases damaging molecules that overwhelm skin cells and stop them from repairing tissue. Researchers discovered that neutralizing these harmful molecules with antioxidants allows skin cells to recover and restart healing. Tue, 20 Jan 2026 02:35:17 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/01/260120015650.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/01/260120000323.htm Ibuprofen may be doing more than easing aches and pains—it could also help reduce the risk of some cancers. Studies have linked regular use to lower rates of endometrial and bowel cancer, likely because the drug dampens inflammation that fuels tumor growth. Researchers have even found it can interfere with genes cancer cells rely on to survive. Still, experts warn that long-term use carries risks and shouldn’t replace proven prevention strategies. Tue, 20 Jan 2026 03:47:11 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/01/260120000323.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/01/260106224644.htm Global cancer cases have surged dramatically, doubling since 1990 and reaching 18.5 million new diagnoses in 2023. Deaths have also climbed to over 10 million a year, with the steepest increases hitting low- and middle-income countries. Without urgent action, researchers project more than 30 million new cases annually by 2050. Alarmingly, around four in ten cancer deaths are tied to preventable risks such as smoking, poor diet, and high blood sugar. Wed, 07 Jan 2026 02:57:53 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/01/260106224644.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/12/251214100919.htm Researchers discovered that tanning beds cause widespread, mutation-laden DNA damage across almost all skin, explaining the sharply increased melanoma risk. Single-cell genomic analysis revealed dangerous mutations even in sun-protected regions. Survivors’ stories underscore how early tanning habits have lifelong consequences. The findings push for stricter policies and clear public warnings.

Carnosic acid, a natural antioxidant in rosemary, promoted scar-free healing in mice by activating a nerve sensor tied to regenerative repair. Rosemary proved more potent and gentler than other herbs or compounds that target the same pathway. The work hints at a low-cost future option for reducing scarring in humans. Sun, 07 Dec 2025 10:16:23 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/12/251207031329.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/11/251116105732.htm Penn State scientists identified a striking rise in melanoma across several Pennsylvania counties dominated by cropland and herbicide use. The elevated risk persisted even after factoring in sunlight, suggesting an environmental influence beyond the usual expectations. Researchers warn that drifting chemicals may expose nearby residents, not just farm workers. Sun, 16 Nov 2025 12:16:29 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/11/251116105732.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/11/251116105631.htm Researchers have uncovered that SerpinB3, typically linked to severe cancers, is also a key player in natural wound healing. The protein drives skin cell movement and tissue rebuilding, especially when paired with next-generation biomaterial dressings. Its newfound role explains why cancer cells exploit it and opens the door to new wound-healing therapies. Mon, 17 Nov 2025 08:55:51 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/11/251116105631.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/11/251108012853.htm New research suggests the COVID-19 vaccine could help children with eczema stay healthier overall. Vaccinated kids had lower rates of infections and allergies, including asthma and rhinitis, compared with unvaccinated peers. Experts believe the vaccine may help prevent allergic conditions from worsening, showing its value beyond protection from COVID-19. Sat, 08 Nov 2025 04:23:03 EST https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/11/251108012853.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/10/251022023113.htm Scientists have uncovered a toxic alliance between Aβ and fibrinogen that may explain how Alzheimer’s disease begins. The two proteins together create stubborn clots that damage blood vessels and spark inflammation in the brain. These effects appear even at very low concentrations and disrupt the blood-brain barrier, paving the way for neurodegeneration. The findings highlight a potential new therapeutic target for early intervention. Wed, 22 Oct 2025 09:19:26 EDT https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/10/251022023113.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/10/251013040323.htm UMass Amherst researchers have developed a groundbreaking nanoparticle-based cancer vaccine that prevented melanoma, pancreatic, and triple-negative breast cancers in mice—with up to 88% remaining tumor-free. The vaccine triggers a multi-pathway immune response, producing powerful T-cell activation and long-term immune memory that stops both tumor growth and metastasis. By combining cancer-specific antigens with a lipid nanoparticle “super adjuvant,” it overcomes key challenges in cancer immunotherapy.

The results highlight pterostilbene as a promising natural ingredient for next-generation anti-aging skincare. Mon, 15 Sep 2025 08:52:13 EDT https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/09/250914205851.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/09/250914205829.htm Dry eyes are far more common than previously believed, with over half of adults in the US and Europe experiencing symptoms, yet most remain undiagnosed for years. The large-scale NESTS study reveals that sufferers often endure daily discomfort that disrupts work, driving, and even surgery outcomes. Many accept the condition as part of aging, unaware that simple treatments could provide relief. Mon, 15 Sep 2025 01:05:42 EDT https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/09/250914205829.htm https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/08/250811104224.htm Scientists have discovered a parasite that can sneak into your skin without you feeling a thing. The worm, Schistosoma mansoni, has evolved a way to switch off the body’s pain and itch signals, letting it invade undetected. By blocking certain nerve pathways, it avoids triggering the immune system’s alarms. This stealth tactic not only helps the worm survive, but could inspire new kinds of pain treatments and even preventative creams to protect people from infection.

In a recent study, researchers have identified that kaempferol, a flavonoid, produces an anti-inflammatory effect through regulatory T-cell development. This occurred through increased RADLH2 expression in dendritic cells via AhR-mediated and PU.1/IRF-4 dependent mechanisms. Additionally, kaempferol suppressed several allergic symptoms in mice with food allergies.

However, their effectiveness has plateaued due to therapeutic resistance that renders tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, or TILs, ineffective. Thus, finding ways to disarm that resistance and rejuvenate anti-cancer TILs so they can kill tumor cells is an important goal for cancer clinicians.

This protein-based material, named Q5, could transform the rheological -- or flow-related -- properties of PSCPs, making them more stable under the slightly acidic conditions of human skin. This innovation could also streamline the creation of more eco-friendly skincare products, offering increased efficacy and durability while addressing market demands for ethically sourced ingredients.

While imbalances in skin microbiome composition are linked to disease, studying it has been challenging due to limited methods for culturing multiple bacterial species together. Now, scientists have developed a new medium which allows co-culturing of key skin bacteria while preserving their natural balance, opening new pathways for studying microbial interactions and skin health.
