Dermal fibroblasts are the key sensors of aseptic skin inflammation through interleukin 1 release by lesioned keratinocytes
IL-1 plays a crucial role in triggering sterile inflammation following tissue injury.
Although most studies associate IL-1 release by injured cells to the recruitment of neutrophils for tissue repair, the inflammatory cascade involves several molecular and cellular actors whose role remains to be specified.
Lymphotonic activity of Ruscus extract, hesperidin methyl chalcone and vitamin C in human lymphatic smooth muscle cells
Besides actions including their venotonic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidant effects, venoactive drugs are expected to act on edema via their action on lymphatics.
Comparative analysis of original face and skin-warped average face images for the scoring of skin attributes
In the cosmetic field, claim substantiations face several challenges.One that could seem trivial is illustrating the performance of a product. With the growing awareness of subjects’ image rights and the implementation
of more regulations to protect personal data, presenting the effects of a product using the very image of a subject becomes increasingly complicated.
Metrology and sensors as dermo-cosmetic technology opportunities for a change of paradigm
According to the International Bureau of Weights and Measurements, metrology, the study of measurement, is becoming an essential aspect of all industries today in creating value.
Epidermal healing in burns: autologous keratinocyte transplantation as a standard procedure: update and perspective
In the contexte of skin graft, cell suspensions transplanted directly to the wound is an attractive process, removing the need for attachment to a membrane before transfer and avoiding one potential source of inefficiency. Choosing an optimal donor site containing cells with high proliferative capacity is essential for graft success in burns.
Inhibition of keratinocyte differentiation by the synergistic effect of IL-17A, IL-22, IL-1α, TNFα and oncostatin M
This study highlights the precise role of cytokines in the skin inflammatory response (psoriasis). IL-22 and OSM more specifically drive epidermal hyperplasia and differentiation loss while IL-1α, IL-17A and TNFα were more involved in the activation of innate immunity.
in vitro effects of polyphenols from cocoa and beta-sitosterol on the growth of human prostate cancer and normal cells
The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the inhibitory effect of different cocoa polyphenols extracts, alone or combined with beta-sitosterol, on two human prostate cancer cell lines (nonmetastatic 22Rv1 cells and metastatic DU145 cells) and a normal human prostate cell line (RWEP-1)
