Lee H, Sim N, Fotouhi A, Daveluy S. Vegan Diet in Dermatology: A Review. J Clin Med 2023; 12:5800. [PMID: 37762741 PMCID: PMC10531971 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12185800] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2023] [Revised: 08/29/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Diet is known to play a role in the development of skin disorders. While a vegan diet is frequently described as a risk factor for skin disease secondary to nutritional deficiency, this risk may be overestimated. This review aims to debunk myths and provide information on skin disorders and inflammatory skin conditions that have associations with specific nutritional deficiencies in the context of a vegan diet. A literature search was performed for each nutrient and inflammatory skin disease using the PubMed/MEDLINE database and public health website pages concerning a vegan diet. The literature has individual cases reporting skin disease due to deficiencies in vitamin B2 and vitamin A in patients following a vegan diet. The recommended daily amounts of nutrients and vitamins can be fulfilled on a vegan diet. Vegan diets also avoid food groups such as dairy and other animal-based products, which holds benefits in inflammatory skin diseases including acne, psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa, and atopic dermatitis. Overall, the risk of skin disease secondary to nutritional deficiency in patients following a vegan diet is very low and likely over-emphasized. A well-balanced and conscientiously planned vegan diet can adequately provide the necessary amounts of proteins, vitamins, and minerals to support skin health.

Phytoecdysteroids from Serratula coronata L. for Psoriatic Skincare. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27113471. [PMID: 35684408 PMCID: PMC9181847 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27113471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2022] [Revised: 05/25/2022] [Accepted: 05/26/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Phytoecdysones from Serratula coronata seem to be promising agents for skincare in patients with psoriasis. The aim of the study was to determine the effects of creams containing the extract of S. coronata on psoriatic lesions. Creams with different formulas were prepared: 0-Lekobaza®, 1-Lekobaza®, S. coronata, 2-Lekobaza®, Salicylic acid, 3-Lekobaza®, S. coronata, Salicylic acid. After examination of skin penetration and biosafety, the designated cream was applied twice daily for 6 weeks on 72 psoriatic plaques located on elbows or knees. The lesions were assessed at baseline and follow-up of 6 weeks. The lesions area was measured, and severity of scaling, erythema, and infiltration was assessed using a 5-point scale (from 0—none to 4—very severe). Skin hydration and structure, pH, transepidermal water loss, erythema, and melanin index were analyzed instrumentally. Creams 1, 2, and 3 significantly reduced the area of psoriatic plaques. Improvement in erythema and infiltration was observed for creams 1 and 3. Creams 1–3 reduced scaling. Our study confirmed a beneficial effect of creams containing S. coronata extract on psoriatic lesions.

Abstract
Nowadays, increasingly more attention is being paid to a holistic approach to health, in which diet contributes to disease prevention. There is growing interest in functional food that not only provides basic nutrition but has also been demonstrated to be an opportunity for the prevention of disorders. A promising functional food is soybean, which is the richest source of the isoflavone, genistein. Genistein may be useful in the prevention and treatment of such disorders as psoriasis, cataracts, cystic fibrosis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and type 2 diabetes. However, achievable concentrations of genistein in humans are low, and the use of soybean as a functional food is not devoid of concerns, which are related to genistein's potential side effects resulting from its estrogenic and goitrogenic effects.

Abstract
Genistein is applied worldwide as an alternative medicament for psoriasis (Ps) because of its anti-inflammatory activity and perceived beneficial impact on the skin. Hereby, we report our in vivo and in vitro investigations to supplement scientific research in this area. The reduction of clinical and biochemical scores in mild to moderate Ps patients taking genistein, its safety, good tolerability with no serious adverse events or discontinuations of treatment, no dose-limiting toxicities, negligible changes in pharmacodynamic parameters and remarkable serum interleukin level alterations were documented in this study. A certain regression of the Ps phenotype was visible, based on photo-documented Ps lesion evaluation. Through in vitro experiments, we found that genistein reduced IL-17A and TNF-α induced MAPK, NF-κB, and PI3K activation in normal human epidermal keratinocytes. Moreover, at the mRNA level of genes associated with the early inflammatory response characteristic for Ps (CAMP, CCL20, DEFB4A, PIK3CA, S100A7, and S100A9) and key cellular signalling (MTORC1 and TFEB), we showed that this isoflavone attenuated the increased response of IL-17A- and TNF-α-related pathways. This allows us to conclude that genistein is a good candidate for Ps treatment, being attractive for co-pharmacotherapy with other drugs.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by accelerated tumor necrosis factor-α/interleukin-23/interleukin-17 axis, hyperproliferation and abnormal differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes. Psoriasis patients are frequently associated with obesity, diabetes, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular diseases, or inflammatory bowel diseases. Psoriasis patients often show unbalanced dietary habits such as higher intake of fat and lower intake of fish or dietary fibers, compared to controls. Such dietary habits might be related to the incidence and severity of psoriasis. Nutrition influences the development and progress of psoriasis and its comorbidities. Saturated fatty acids, simple sugars, red meat, or alcohol exacerbate psoriasis via the activation of nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich repeats containing family, pyrin domain-containing-3 inflammasome, tumor necrosis factor-α/interleukin-23/interleukin-17 pathway, reactive oxygen species, prostanoids/leukotrienes, gut dysbiosis or suppression of regulatory T cells, while n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, vitamin D, vitamin B12, short chain fatty acids, selenium, genistein, dietary fibers or probiotics ameliorate psoriasis via the suppression of inflammatory pathways above or induction of regulatory T cells. Psoriasis patients are associated with dysbiosis of gut microbiota and the deficiency of vitamin D or selenium. We herein present the update information regarding the stimulatory or regulatory effects of nutrients or food on psoriasis and the possible alleviation of psoriasis by nutritional strategies.

Abstract
Background:
Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that ingeminates itself with the repeated
proliferation of keratinocytes. It globally strikes a 2-5 % population on an average. Management
of psoriasis remains a daunting task with various challenges influencing treatment, such as patient
conformity and adherence to therapy, delicate patient profiles, psychological aspects, and skin as a
barrier to topical delivery. The first part reviewed pathophysiology, triggering factors, and clinical
classification. The second part reviewed all the therapies, such as topical, oral, biological, parenteral
therapy, phototherapy, and the phyto-pharmaceuticals.
Methods:
The research data related to the existing and upcoming therapies for psoriasis treatment,
several nanocarriers, existing marketed formulations, and detailed description of phytopharmaceuticals
with their mechanism.
Results:
Topical therapy is the mainstay treatment option with limited adverse effects. Biological therapy
has reformed conventional psoriasis treatment by being more efficacious and has increased patient
acceptance due to decreased adverse events. Nanoformulations present an edge over conventional
therapy due to improved anti-psoriatic effect and decreased side effects. Phyto-pharmaceuticals act as
a complementary and alternative therapy for diminishing psoriasis symptoms.
Conclusion:
A rationalized cost-effective patient compliant therapy is required for effective management
and complete cure of psoriasis.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic recurrent skin inflammatory disease, and inhibition of inflammation may be an effective means of treating psoriasis. The flavonoid genistein has a clear anti-inflammatory effect. However, the anti-psoriatic effects of genistein and their underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of genistein on imiquimod (IMQ)-induced psoriasis-like skin lesions in vivo and explored the mechanisms underlying those effects in vitro. It was found that genistein can significantly improve IMQ-induced pathological scores of cutaneous skin lesions in mice, reduce epidermal thickness, and inhibit the expression of inflammatory factors,including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), IL-17 and IL-23. In vitro studies, genistein inhibited the proliferation of human keratinocyte HaCaT cells and inhibited the expression of inflammatory factors in a dose-dependent manner which induced by TNFα. Further researches showed that genistein could also significantly inhibit phosphorylated STAT3 (pSAT3) expression in IMQ mice dorsal skin and in TNF-α-induced HaCaT cells. The inhibitory effect of genistein on the expression of IL-6, IL-23 and TNF-α was weakened after Stat3 siRNA in HaCaT cells. Genistein could also significantly inhibit TNF-α induced the nuclear translocation of NF-κB, and inhibit the phosphorylation of I-kBα (pI-kBα). After combining with NF-κB blocker BAY 11-7082, the effect of genistein down-regulate the expression of TNF-α and VEGFA was attenuated in HaCaT cells. The results suggest that genistein may be developed for the treatment of psoriasis lesions.

Abstract
Due to its strong proliferation-reducing effects on keratinocytes, and also anti-inflammatory properties, the isoflavone genistein has already been proposed as a possible antipsoriatic compound. As there is still no detailed information on this topic, we examined the effects of genistein by using an in vitro model of both, normal and "psoriasis-like" keratinocytes at this stage of our work exhaustively testing the selected flavonoid in a mono-treated experimental design. Gene expression studies revealed transcriptional changes that confirms known disease-associated pathways and highlights many psoriasis-related genes. Our results suggested that aberrant expression of genes contributing to the progress of psoriasis could be improved by the action of genistein. Genistein prevented "cytokine mix" as well as TNF-α-induced NF-κB nuclear translocation, with no effect on the PI3K signaling cascade, indicating the luck of turning this pathway into NF-κB activation. It could have attenuated TNF-α and LPS-induced inflammatory responses by suppressing ROS activation. Regardless of the type of keratinocyte stimulation used, reduction of cytokine IL-8, IL-20 and CCL2 production (both at RNA and protein level) following genistein treatment was visible. Because investigations of other groups supported our commentary on potential administration of genistein as a potential weapon in the armamentarium against psoriasis, it is believed that this paper should serve to encourage researchers to conduct further studies on this subject.

Abstract
Research in recent years has shown that sphingolipids are essential signalling molecules for the proper biological and structural functioning of cells. Long-term studies on the metabolism of sphingolipids have provided evidence for their role in the pathogenesis of a number of diseases. As many inflammatory diseases, such as lysosomal storage disorders and some dermatologic diseases, including psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and ichthyoses, are associated with the altered composition and metabolism of sphingolipids, more studies precisely determining the responsibilities of these compounds for disease states are required to develop novel pharmacological treatment opportunities. It is worth emphasizing that knowledge from the study of inflammatory metabolic diseases and especially the possibility of their treatment may lead to insight into related metabolic pathways, including those involved in the formation of the epidermal barrier and providing new approaches towards workable therapies.
