While the dysregulation of YAP/TAZ has been linked to various human diseases, their involvement in the aging of human skin has only recently begun to manifest. In the skin, the YAP/TAZ effectors emerge as central regulators in maintaining homeostasis of epidermal stem cells and dermal extracellular matrix, and thus intimately linked to skin aging processes. This review underscores recent molecular breakthroughs highlighting how age-related decline of YAP/TAZ activity impacts human epidermal and dermal aging. Gaining insight into the evolving roles of YAP/TAZ in human skin aging presents a promising avenue for the development of innovative therapeutic approaches aimed at enhancing skin health and addressing age-related skin conditions.</p>","PeriodicalId":94298,"journal":{"name":"Annals of dermatology","volume":"36 3","pages":"135-144"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11148314/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141180547","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
