Human Galectins Induce Conversion of Dermal Fibroblasts into Myofibroblasts and Production of Extracellular Matrix: Potential Application in Tissue Engineering and Wound Repair [PDF]

, 2011
Members of the galectin family of endogenous lectins are potent adhesion/growth-regulatory effectors. Their multi-functionality opens possibilities for their use in bioapplications. We studied whether human galectins induce the conversion of human dermal

Cell Proteomic Footprint [PDF]

, 2008
The authentication of mammalian cell cultures and their subpopulations are of tremendous demand in biotechnology and cell therapy. However, current techniques are either not efficient or can be very complex and expensive.

β-Ionone Attenuates Dexamethasone-Induced Suppression of Collagen and Hyaluronic Acid Synthesis in Human Dermal Fibroblasts

Biomolecules, 2021
Stress is a major contributing factor of skin aging, which is clinically characterized by wrinkles, loss of elasticity, and dryness. In particular, glucocorticoids are generally considered key hormones for promoting stress-induced skin aging through ...

Electrical Stimulation of Human Dermal Fibroblasts on Conducting Matrix

Technical Physics, 2022
Conducting composite based on biocompatible chitosan and single wall carbon nanotubes was used as a matrix for electrical stimulation of human fibroblasts. Parameters of ionic and electronic currents passing through the matrix upon applying cyclic potentials (±100 mV) were studied; the scaffold demonstrated high stability in the course of ...

Dermal Fibroblast CCN1 Expression in Mice Recapitulates Human Skin Dermal Aging [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2021
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 ...

The Inhibitory Effects of Anti-Oxidants on Ultraviolet-Induced Up-Regulation of the Wrinkling-Inducing Enzyme Neutral Endopeptidase in Human Fibroblasts. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
We recently reported that the over-expression of skin fibroblast-derived neutral endopeptidase (NEP) plays a pivotal role in impairing the three-dimensional architecture of dermal elastic fibers during the biological mechanism of ultraviolet (UV)-induced

Age, gender and UV-exposition related effects on gene expression in in vivo aged short term cultivated human dermal fibroblasts. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Ageing, the progressive functional decline of virtually all tissues, affects numerous living organisms. Main phenotypic alterations of human skin during the ageing process include reduced skin thickness and elasticity which are related to extracellular ...

Decanal Protects against UVB-Induced Photoaging in Human Dermal Fibroblasts via the cAMP Pathway

, 2020
Solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the primary factor of cutaneous aging, resulting in coarse wrinkles and dryness. In this study, we aimed to test whether decanal, an aromatic compound found mainly in citrus fruits, inhibits UVB-mediated photoaging in ...

Inonotus obliquus Extracts Decreased Expression of MMP1 mRNA via JNK-AP-1 Axis

Cosmetics, 2020
Inonotus obliquus, which is parasitic on birch and other trees, is a fungus in the family Hymenochaetaceae. In this study, we investigated whether Inonotus obliquus extracts used in traditional medicine were decreased in the expression of matrix ...

Detection of Interleukin 1 with Human Dermal Fibroblasts

Immunobiology, 1989
A fibroblast proliferation assay was developed for the detection of interleukin 1 (IL 1). Proliferation was measured by thymidine incorporation and by staining of cellular proteins with crystal violet. Response of fibroblasts was optimal at cell numbers of 4,000 to 9,000 cells/culture and an incubation period of four days.
