January 2024 in “Wiadomości Lekarskie” This study highlights the potential of cosmetic products combining fibroblast growth factors and antioxidants like thioproline, ergothioneine, silymarin, and rosmarinic acid, to mitigate skin aging by reducing oxidative stress and enhancing cellular protection in the skin.
November 2023 in “South African journal of botany” This study found that Eclipta alba (L.) cultivated in France exhibited significant anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-collagenase activities, attributed mainly to compounds like wedelolactone and demethylwedelolactone, suggesting potential use as an anti-aging cosmetic ingredient.
December 2022 in “Geriatrics” This study found that communication about aging across seven domains may predict successful aging in Indonesia through both positive and negative effects and efficacy toward aging.
January 2022 in “Figshare” This study found that inhibiting autophagy in mouse preputial glands alters lipid metabolism, delays aging-related duct changes, and reduces pheromone production, indicating autophagy's critical role in gland homeostasis and cell breakdown during secretion.
January 2021 in “Figshare” This study found that autophagy in the preputial glands of mice plays a crucial role in regulating lipid and fatty acid metabolism, as well as pheromone production.
October 2020 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study found that treating aged mice with the Cdc42 inhibitor CASIN restored hair follicle stem cell functionality and improved hair regeneration by inducing anagen onset and increasing anagen skin areas.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study investigated novel genetic tools to manipulate hair follicle compartments in mice and found that altering dermal papilla genes can significantly impact hair pigmentation.
