Acne scars are a common dermatological concern that can significantly impact the quality of life for affected individuals. Fractional laser therapy has emerged as a promising treatment modality for acne scar management, but its histological credibility and clinical efficacy remain subjects of investigation. This study aims to assess the histological changes induced by fractional laser therapy in acne scar tissue and evaluate its clinical efficacy in improving scar appearance. A comprehensive review of existing literature, coupled with a clinical trial, will be conducted to analyze the effects of fractional laser therapy on collagen remodeling, epidermal thickness and scar texture. The study will also investigate patient-reported outcomes and assess any adverse effects associated with the treatment. Through a combination of histological analysis and clinical assessment, this research seeks to provide a robust evaluation of the credibility and efficacy of fractional laser therapy as a viable option for acne scar management.

The post-translational modification of proteins plays a pivotal role in regulating cellular functions and orchestrating complex biological processes. Protein arginylation, a relatively recently discovered modification, involves the covalent attachment of an arginine residue to the N-terminus of a protein, catalyzed by arginyltransferase enzymes. This modification has emerged as a key regulator of protein stability, localization and activity, impacting a wide range of cellular processes. In this review, we explore the interplay between functional dynamics and protein arginylation, shedding light on the diverse roles of this modification in health and disease. We discuss the molecular mechanisms underlying arginylation, its regulation and its impact on protein function. Furthermore, we highlight recent advancements in the field, including the identification of novel substrates and the development of potential therapeutic strategies targeting arginylation. This comprehensive overview provides insights into the multifaceted nature of protein arginylation and its significance in cellular biology and human health.

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has raised concerns regarding its potential effects on various organ systems, including the male reproductive system.
