Progress on Multiomics Research on Acne Vulgaris: A Literature Review.

Abstract

Acne vulgaris, a prevalent chronic inflammatory disease of the pilosebaceous unit, continues to present with a complex pathogenesis that is not fully understood. The advent of high-throughput sequencing technologies has revolutionized biomedical research, enabling the comprehensive use of multiomics analyses to study diseases with intricate mechanisms, such as acne. This review summarizes the progress in genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics research on acne. By providing a comprehensive overview, we aim to enhance our understanding of acne pathogenesis and identify potential therapeutic targets that could inspire the prevention and treatment of acne.
