The chronological skin aging is driven by the genetic programming – the programmed aging process that also makes the hair white and makes the teeth fall -. When the natural aging process is superimposed with photodamage, the skin ages much … Continue reading
Skin aging can be attributed to photoaging (extrinsic) and chronological (intrinsic) aging. Photoaging and intrinsic aging are induced by damage to human skin attributable to repeated exposure to ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and to the passage of time. COX-2 is a … Continue reading
NF-κB is a protein complex that controls the transcription of DNA know as transcription factor which in turn regulate the expression of various genes. NF-κB is found in almost all cell types and is involved in cellular responses to stimuli … Continue reading
Without inflammation, infections would go unchecked and wounds would not heal; however, the process of inflammation and repair can also be harmful. As we age, the immune system becomes less effective and its capacity to manage the inflammatory activity is … Continue reading
A DNA microarray (also commonly known as DNA chip or gene chip technology) is a collection of microscopic DNA spots attached to a solid surface. Each DNA spot contains picomoles (10−12 moles) of a specific DNA sequence called probes. Probes … Continue reading
Antioxidants are a group of important ingredients for anti-aging skin care because of their ability to neutralize the free radical damage of cells and macromolecules (protein, DNA, lipids). – Free radical damage was one of the first processes associated with … Continue reading
Research shows that there are, in fact, two distinct types of aging. Aging caused by the genes we inherit is called intrinsic (internal) aging. The other type of aging is known as extrinsic (external) aging and is caused by environmental … Continue reading
Dark Under-Eye Circles — – Causes and Cures How and why your body creates dark under-eye circles Most people think that dark under-eye circles are caused by staying up late watching monster movies, or having that last drink the night … Continue reading
If we lived in a fair world dark circles would be a punishment for stopping out too late and partying into the early hours. But life just isn’t like that – no matter how much of an early to bed … Continue reading
