Puerarin blocks the aging phenotype in human dermal fibroblasts.
Dermal fibroblast aging contributes to aging-associated functional defects in the skin since dermal fibroblasts maintain skin homeostasis by interacting with the epidermis and extracellular matrix.

The effect of aging in primary human dermal fibroblasts.
Skin aging is a complex process, and alterations in human skin due to aging have distinct characteristic as compared to other organs. The aging of dermal cells and the biological mechanisms involved in this process are key areas to understand skin aging.

Dermal Fibroblast CCN1 Expression in Mice Recapitulates Human Skin Dermal Aging [PDF]
The aging process deleteriously alters the structure and function of dermal collagen. These alterations result in thinning, fragility, wrinkles, laxity, impaired wound healing, and a microenvironment conducive to cancer. However, the key factors responsible for these changes have not been fully elucidated, and relevant models for the study of skin ...

A Role of Myocardin Related Transcription Factor-A (MRTF-A) in Scleroderma Related Fibrosis. [PDF]
In scleroderma (systemic sclerosis, SSc), persistent activation of myofibroblast leads to severe skin and organ fibrosis resistant to therapy. Increased mechanical stiffness in the involved fibrotic tissues is a hallmark clinical feature and a cause of ...

Human dermal fibroblasts in psychiatry research [PDF]
In order to decipher the disease etiology, progression and treatment of multifactorial human brain diseases we utilize a host of different experimental models. Recently, patient-derived human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cultures have re-emerged as promising in vitro functional system for examining various cellular, molecular, metabolic and (patho ...

Cultured Human Dermal Fibroblasts do Produce Cortisol [PDF]
Known steroidogenic functions of the skin that are represented by the synthesis and metabolism of androgens and estrogens (Chen et al., 2002; Zouboulis and Degitz, 2004) probably include corticosteroids (Slominski et al., 2000; Slominski, 2005). Thus, the skin expresses both the genes and proteins involved in the synthesis of adrenal corticosteroids ...

CCN2, a member of the CCN family of matricellular proteins, is a key mediator and biomarker of tissue fibrosis. We previously reported that CCN2 is significantly reduced in aged human dermis, which contributes to dermal aging through the downregulation ...
