PHOTOPROTECTIVE EFFECT OF ISOFLAVONE GENISTEIN ON ULTRAVIOLET B-INDUCED PYRIMIDINE DIMER FORMATION AND PCNA EXPRESSION IN HUMAN RECONSTITUTED SKIN AND ITS IMPLICATIONS IN DERMATOLOGY AND PREVENTION OF CUTANEOUS CARCINOGENESIS.

This study by researchers at Mount Sinai School of Medicine demonstrated that MatTek’s EpiDermFT epidermal/dermal human skin tissue equivalent can be used to investigate the photoprotective efficacy of compounds by exposing treated and untreated EpiDermFT tissues to UVB radiation. Genistein,... Read More

HUMAN MELANOMA DEVELOPMENT IN RECONSTRUCTED SKIN MODELS.

Human skin reconstructs are three dimensional in vitro models consisting of a co-culture of epidermal keratinocytes and melanocytes plated onto a dermal substrate. In contrast to cells in monolayer culture, tissue-engineered skin equivalents contain well-developed epidermal layers with normal melanocytes... Read More
