A Transcriptomic Atlas of Healthy Human Skin Links Regional Identity to Inflammatory Disease.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Human skin is not a uniform organ but a mosaic of anatomically distinct niches, with each site finely tuned to unique environmental demands and immune pressures. Yet, the molecular determinants that define these regional identities and their relationship to site-specific vulnerability to inflammatory disease remain poorly understood. Here, we generate a high-resolution single-cell atlas of human skin, profiling 274,834 cells from 96 healthy samples across 7 anatomically distinct sites (acral, arm, axilla, back, face, leg and scalp). Our analysis reveals striking region-specific transcriptional and cellular networks, uncovering how local immune-stromal crosstalk governs tissue homeostasis and underpins anatomical susceptibility to distinct inflammatory diseases such as such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), atopic dermatitis (AD), and psoriasis. These findings illuminate the tissue-intrinsic foundations of regional immune identity and provide a blueprint/resource for the development of precision therapies tailored to the distinct immunological microenvironments of specific anatomical skin sites.
