Anti-aging effects of high molecular weight proteoglycan from salmon nasal cartilage in hairless mice.
1, May 2012Authors: Goto M, Yamazaki S, Kato Y, Yamamoto K, Katagata Y Abstract Proteoglycans comprise a family of complex macromolecules consisting of a core protein with covalently attached glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains. The skin anti-aging effects of oral administration of proteoglycan fractions with different molecular weights from salmon nasal cartilage were investigated in a hairless mouse model of skin aging; aging was caused by repeated ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation. Three proteoglycan fractions of different molecular weights were prepared from salmon nasal cartilage water extract by ion-exchange column chromatography and gel filtration column chromatography

Authors: Hsieh PW, Al-Suwayeh SA, Fang CL, Lin CF, Chen CC, Fang JY Abstract A co-drug of hydroquinone (HQ) and azelaic acid (AA), bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)nonanedioate (BHN), was synthesized and investigated as a topical prodrug with the aim of improving the dermal delivery of the parent drugs. Physicochemical parameters were ascertained, and the enzymatic hydrolysis was examined
AbstractWe have investigated the expression and role of galectin‐1 and other galectins in psoriasis and in the Th1/Th17 effector and dendritic cell responses associated with this chronic inflammatory skin condition. To determine differences between psoriasis patients and healthy donors, expression of galectins was analysed by RT‐PCR in skin samples and on epidermal and peripheral blood dendritic cells by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry.
