Physiological and deleterious effects of ultraviolet radiation on the skin, mechanisms involved in regulation of cellular redox balance and impairment of antioxidant systems, mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of pigmentary disorders in particular vitiligo, intracellular signal transduction in melanocyte survival and differentiation, modulation of the expression of enzymes involved in pigmentation, biological risk factors for cutaneous melanoma, inflammatory skin diseases, allergic skin diseases. Molecular , cellular and biochemical mechanisms of melanocyte, keratinocyte and fibroblast adaptive response to stressful external and endogeous stimuli. Role of membrane lipid profile in signal transduction and differentiation. Molecular, cellular and biochemical basis for inflammatory skin diseases. Biochemical profile including lipidomics, keratinocytes and sebocytes during cellular process leading to acne. Pharmacological activities of molecules interfering with lipid-dependent signaling affecting cell survival and differentiation.
