EVALUATION OF COSMETIC INGREDIENTS IN TISSUE ENGINEERED HUMAN SKIN IN VITRO.

This study by scientists at Procter & Gamble demonstrated that MatTek’s MelanoDerm and EpiDermFT in vitro human skin equivalent tissues are useful tools in understanding how compounds used in anti-aging cosmetic products (“cosmeceuticals”) like N-acetyl glucosamine and niacinamide affect production...

BY IL-1 SIGNALING, MONOCYTE-DERIVED CELLS DRAMATICALLY ENHANCE THE EPIDERMAL ANTIMICROBIAL RESPONSE TO LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDE.

Epithelia react to microbial pathogens by mounting a defensive response that includes the production of antimicrobial peptides. In this study, we show that, in human epidermal cultures, Escherichia coli LPS was a very weak direct inducer of human β-defensin (HBD)-2... Read More

ENCAPSULATED RETINOL (0.5%) AND RETINOIC ACID (0.05%) ARE EQUALLY EFFECTIVE AT PROTECTING AGAINST UV-INDUCED DAMAGE IN EPIDERM-FT TISSUES.

Solar ultraviolet light damages skin resulting in photoaging which superimposed on chronological aging resulting in worsening of skin appearance. The extent of sun damage is proportional to the amount/time of UV-light exposure triggering visible changes such as dryness, rough texture,... Read More

ANTIMICROBIAL BARRIER OF AN IN VITRO ORAL EPITHELIAL MODEL.

This study by researchers at the University of Washington demonstrated that MatTek’s EpiOral human buccal tissue equivalent has an in vivo-like antimicrobial barrier and is therefore a superior in vitro model of oral epithelia when compared to submerged monolayer cell... Read More

AccelaFuze™ PEPTIDE INFUSION THERAPY.

This study by scientists at Woodford Medical Aesthetics demonstrated that MatTek’s EpiDermFT full-thickness in vitro 3-D human skin tissue equivalent, because it is produced from normal (non-transformed) human skin cells (keratinocytes and fibroblasts), can be used to accurately measure the...
