Cultured human dermal fibroblasts do produce cortisol.
TO THE EDITOR Known steroidogenic functions of the skin that are represented by the synthesis and metabolism of androgens and estrogens (Chen et al., 2002; Zouboulis and Degitz, 2004) probably include corticosteroids (Slominski et al., 2000; Slominski, 2005). Thus, the skin expresses both the genes and proteins involved in the synthesis of adrenal corticosteroids (Slominski et al., 1996, 1999, ...
متن کاملMn-superoxide dismutase in human dermal fibroblasts
To determine the effect of oxidative stress on expression of extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD), CuZn-SOD and Mn-SOD, two fibroblast lines were exposed for periods of up to 4 days to a wide concentration range of oxidizing agents: xanthine oxidase plus hypoxanthine, paraquat, pyrogallol, anaphthoflavone, hydroquinone, catechol, Fe2l ions, Cu2+ ions, buthionine sulphoximine, diethylmale...
متن کاملTelomere shortening in cultured human dermal fibroblasts is associated with acute photodamage induced by UVA irradiation
INTRODUCTION Photoaging is the superposition of chronic ultraviolet (UV)-induced damage on intrinsic aging. Telomere length is a molecular marker of cell aging, and genomic instability due to telomere shortening has been linked to several aging-related diseases. AIM To explore the effects of different doses of ultraviolet A (UVA) on the length of telomeres in human skin fibroblasts and partly...
متن کاملViability of human dermal fibroblasts cultured on bacterial cellulose and Aloe vera composites
Background Development of multifunctional scaffolds has allowed restructuration and improvement of native tissues, presenting characteristics that mimic complex tissues formation [1]. An ideal scaffold should provide enough transport of nutrients and also adequate mechanical support, allowing the incorporation of many cell types. Likewise, biocompatibility, mechanical properties and water reten...
متن کاملStimulation of Glycosaminoglycan Synthesis in Cultured Human Dermal Fibroblasts by Interleukin
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is believed to play a critical role in wound healing and in morphogenesis. Factors controlling the production of HA by fibroblasts in normal and pathological states are not completely understood. In this report we have observed that natural human interleukin (IL-1)1(, and human recombinant (hrIL-la and (8 are potent stimulators of HA production by fibroblasts in vitro. Hyal...
