Scientists found that vitamin C doesn't just protect skin from damage - it actually turns on sleeping genes that help make ...

A vitamin commonly found in fresh fruits and vegetables could help slow one of the visible signs of aging: thinning skin. A ...

Vitamin C prevents age-related thinning of the skin by switching on genes that promote skin cell growth, a new study has ...

Using a 3D human skin model, they showed that C boosts thickness in the epidermal skin layer by activating genes linked to cell growth.

Three of these are distinct to senescent skin cells and the researchers labeled them C7, C10, and C11. Only one subtype of senescent fibroblast–C10–was more prevalent in older donors.

- Professors Hao F. Zhang and Xiaomin Bao’s groups used super-resolution imaging on human skin cells for the first time. - The researchers explored the gateways between the cells’ cytoplasm and ...

Researchers extracted fibroblasts -- cells that produce the scaffolding to give tissues their structure -- associated with skin tissue and pushed them toward senescence by damaging their DNA ...

Omega-3 fatty acids are a kind of polyunsaturated fat, which your body can't make but needs to build cell walls. ... including the collagen and keratin that form the structure of skin.

Such genetically encoded tags would not bleach inside human cells, enabling scientists to track cell structure to gain a better understanding of cell growth and development. DOI: ACS Biomaterials ...

Pappalardo’s lab-grown material is known as a “skin construct,” meaning it’s a sheet of human cells which can be implanted on a wound that’s too large for a graft from another body part ...
