We are proud to announce the abstract award by the Inflammatory Skin Disease Summit 2023 (ISDS) for our poster “IL-15 contributes to atopic dermatitis pathology: Lessons from a novel humanized mouse disease model” – Piccini I, Egriboz O, Keren A, Pal A, Pappelbaum K, Gilhar A, Vicari A, Bertolini M Atopic dermatitis (AD) is […]
Boost your anti-aging research with our cellular senescence analyses! Cellular senescence is one of the most important factors in the multifactorial skin aging process. This phenomenon is associated with permanent cell cycle arrest characterized by persistent DNA damage response activation, which ultimately affects the ability of cells to proliferate.
Research Highlight: ILC1-like innate lymphocytes are involved in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata
Discover in one of our latest publications how we successfully employed our humanized mouse model for alopecia areata research Alopecia Areata (AA) is one of the most common inflammatory hair loss disorders. For the development of efficient treatment strategies it is crucial to understand the pathogenesis of the disease. However, the exact mechanisms how […]

On June 27th, 2023, Dr. Marta Bertolini (Acting CEO & CSO of Monasterium Laboratory) has presented our free webinar dedicated to Models and Solutions for Hair Follicle Research and Testing. Dr. Marta Bertolini reviews the fundamentals of the human hair follicle, the hair growth cycle and the concept of immune privilege and explores a range of models that are available for the research […]
Hair follicle (HF) disorders such as acne vulgaris and hidradenitis suppurativa, also known as acne inversa, develop in response to dysregulations (imbalances) of the HF microbiota, i.e. the community of microorganisms that inhabit the human HF. Research on the HF microbiome composition is increasing and knowledge about the distinct types of microbiota present in healthy […]
Summarizing the latest research and testing developments in the Atopic Dermatitis field, QIMA Life Sciences has published a new paper in collaboration with Monasterium Laboratory. Packed with clear schemes, insightful graphs, and illustrative examples, it offers a comprehensive collection of assays to enhance your research and evaluate compound efficacy. We focus on our models and assays for atopic dermatitis research and […]
Originally, olfactory receptors (ORs) were described to detect odors. Consequently, they are well known to play a central role for smelling in mammals. However, ORs are not only expressed in the nose, instead we, at Monasterium Laboratory, demonstrated that their physiological functions extends beyond that of olfaction, since these receptors are also functionally expressed in […]
