Description
Jinhu Peng and co-authors tested a plant extract against eczema-like skin disease in mice in a 2026 study. Atopic dermatitis is a long-lasting skin inflammation driven by a weak skin barrier and a confused immune response. The team used an extract of Bidens bipinnata fruit in alcohol. Mice with drug-triggered dermatitis got the extract painted on their skin daily at three dose levels.
The extract eased the visible symptoms, skin thickening, and redness scores. It also improved skin moisture and helped restore two barrier proteins that the disease had lowered. A standard steroid drug, used for comparison, did little for the moisture measures. These results suggest the plant extract both calms inflammation and repairs the skin barrier, a pairing worth more study for skin care.
