Mutations in the filaggrin (FLG) gene, which encodes a key protein of the epidermal barrier, represent the most significant genetic risk factor for the development of atopic dermatitis. Filaggrin deficiency impairs skin barrier function, increases transepidermal water loss, and facilitates allergen penetration. Contemporary research focuses on strategies to restore filaggrin levels. Emollient plus formulations represent a promising pathogenetic approach for restoring epidermal barrier integrity.</p> <p><bold>AIM:</bold> To evaluate the efficacy of a filaggrinol-containing emollient plus in increasing filaggrin levels and improving clinical outcomes in patients with atopic dermatitis.</p> <p><bold>METHODS:</bold> Sixty patients with atopic dermatitis were enrolled and divided into a study group (<italic>n</italic> = 45), who used a filaggrinol-containing emollient plus, and a control group (<italic>n</italic> = 15), who received standard moisturizing therapy. The study assessed changes in clinical indices (vIGA-AD, EASI, POEM, ELMAN, DLQI, and SKINDEX) and filaggrin expression in the skin before and after treatment.</p> <p><bold>RESULTS:</bold> The study group demonstrated a statistically significant increase in filaggrin levels (<italic>p</italic> = 0.024) along with significant improvements across all clinical and quality-of-life indices (<italic>p</italic> &lt; 0.05). Although positive trends were observed in the control group, several scales did not show statistically significant improvement. The absolute intergroup differences in post-treatment filaggrin levels were not statistically significant, yet the intragroup dynamics in the study group support the pathogenetic efficacy of filaggrinol-containing emollient plus in restoring filaggrin.</p> <p><bold>CONCLUSION:</bold> Filaggrinol-containing emollient plus increases filaggrin levels and significantly improves clinical symptoms and quality of life in patients with atopic dermatitis. These findings support its use as a pathogenetically justified, effective, safe, and well-tolerated agent for baseline therapy of atopic dermatitis.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><bold>Обоснование.</bold> Атопический дерматит ― мультифакторное, генетически детерминированное воспалительное заболевание кожи. Мутации в гене ключевого белка эпидермального барьера филаггрина (FLG) представляют собой наиболее значимый генетический фактор риска развития атопического дерматита. Дефицит филаггрина приводит к нарушению барьерной функции кожи, трансэпидермальной потере воды и усиленной пенетрации аллергенов. Современные исследования направлены на разработку стратегий коррекции уровня филаггрина. Эмоленты плюс являются перспективным патогенетическим подходом к восстановлению эпидермального барьера.</p> <p><bold>Цель исследования</bold> ― оценить эффективность эмолента плюс, содержащего филагринол, в повышении концентрации филаггрина и улучшении клинических проявлений у пациентов с атопическим дерматитом.</p> <p><bold>Методы.</bold> В исследование включено 60 пациентов с атопическим дерматитом, разделённых на основную группу (<italic>n</italic>=45), применявшую эмолент плюс c филагринолом, и контрольную группу (<italic>n</italic>=15), использовавшую стандартную увлажняющую терапию. Оценивались динамика клинических индексов (vIGA-AD, EASI, POEM, ELMAN, DLQI, SKINDEX) и экспрессия филаггрина в коже до и после терапии.</p> <p><bold>Результаты.</bold> В основной группе зафиксировано статистически значимое повышение концентрации филаггрина (<italic>p</italic>=0,024) и достоверное улучшение всех клинических показателей и показателей качества жизни (<italic>p</italic> &lt;0,05). В контрольной группе наблюдались положительные тенденции, но улучшение по ряду шкал не достигло статистической значимости. Абсолютные межгрупповые различия по концентрации филаггрина после лечения не были статистически значимыми, однако внутригрупповая динамика в основной группе подтверждает патогенетическую эффективность эмолента плюс c филагринолом в отношении восстановления филаггрина.</p> <p><bold>Заключение.</bold> Эмолент плюс c филагринолом повышает концентрацию филаггрина, значимо улучшает клинические симптомы и качество жизни пациентов с атопическим дерматитом. Результаты подтверждают, что эмолент является патогенетически обоснованным, эффективным, безопасным и хорошо переносимым средством базовой терапии атопического дерматита.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>filaggrinol</kwd><kwd>atopic dermatitis</kwd><kwd>emollient plus</kwd><kwd>filaggrin</kwd><kwd>pathogenetic therapy</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>филагринол</kwd><kwd>атопический дерматит</kwd><kwd>эмолент плюс</kwd><kwd>филаггрин</kwd><kwd>патогенетическая терапия</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><award-group><funding-source><institution-wrap><institution xml:lang="ru">ООО «Др.
