Collagen synthesis in fibroblasts from human colon: regulatory aspects and differences with skin fibroblasts.
The purpose of this study was to examine regulation of collagen synthesis in human colon fibroblasts and compare the results from colon fibroblasts with those obtained in fibroblasts from human skin. The effects of interleukin-1 beta, tumour necrosis factor alpha, interferon gamma, transforming growth factor-beta, dexamethasone, and the calcium ionophore A23187 were investigated. All compounds ...
متن کاملCollagen synthesis by human fibroblasts
We have examined the combined effects of transforming growth factor-fl (TGF-,8), serum and y-interferon (y-IFN) on collagen synthesis by fibroblasts and compared the response of fibroblast subpopulations to TGF-,6. Human diploid fibroblasts were treated with TGF-/J alone and with serum or y-IFN. Cells were labelled with radioactive amino acids, and collagen production was measured as collagenas...
متن کاملIn vitro Co-Culture of Human Skin Keratinocytes and Fibroblasts on a Biocompatible and Biodegradable Scaffold
Background: Extensive full-thickness burns require replacement of both epidermis and dermis. In designing skin replacements, the goal has been to re-create this model and make a product which has both essential components. Methods: In the present study, we developed procedures for establishing confluent, stratified layers of cultured human keratinocytes on the surface of modified collagen-chito...
متن کاملRole of Cultured Skin Fibroblasts in Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery
The skin is the largest tissue of man with several functions. Cosmetics/cosmeceuticals agents always are needed to be evaluated for their detrimental effects on the skin. Nowadays, the therapeutic potential of stem cells has and fibroblasts have increased the hope for a successful cell therapy in aesthetic medicine. Stem cells are unspecialized cells capable of renewing themselves through cell ...
متن کاملModulation of collagen synthesis and its gene expression in human skin fibroblasts by tocotrienol-rich fraction
INTRODUCTION Skin aging may occur as a result of increased free radicals in the body. Vitamin E, the major chain-breaking antioxidant, prevents propagation of oxidative stress, especially in biological membranes. In this study, the molecular mechanism of tocotrienol-rich fraction (TRF) in preventing oxidative stress-induced skin aging was evaluated by determining the rate of total collagen synt...
