La Roche-Posay Effaclar K Acne Treatment Fluid Physician Review http://www.treatment-skincare.com/La-Roche-Posay/Effaclar/K-Acne-Treatment-Fluid/Physician-Review.html "I believe in a twice-a-day regimen is key in ensuring that patients take an active role in their treatment. Using a gentle cleanser in the morning followed by an OTC acne treatment product with salicylic acid and then of course sunscreen is a great way to start. I completely trust La Roche-Posay products, like Effaclar K, to help me better control the overall treatment process to manage the acne and minimize any related side effects".

Although nicotinamide by itself does not act as an antioxidant, the cells cultured in the presence of nicotinamide exhibited reduced levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative damage products associated with cellular senescence, and a decelerated telomere shortening rate without a detectable increase in telomerase activity. ...

Analysis and Stability Study of Myristyl Nicotinate in Dermatological Preparations by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography http://www.treatment-skincare.com/Myristyl-Nicotinate/Analysis-Stability-Study.html Myristyl nicotinate is an ester prodrug under development for delivery of nicotinic acid to skin for treatment and prevention of conditions that involve skin barrier impairment such as chronic photodamage and atopic dermatitis or for mitigating skin barrier impairment that results from therapy such as retinoids or steroids.

The formulation stability of myristyl nicotinate is crucial because even small amounts of free nicotinic acid cause skin flushing, an effect that is not harmful but would severely limit tolerability. ...

Simultaneous Determination of Myristyl Nicotinate, Nicotinic Acid and Nicotinamide in Rabbit Plasma by Liquid Chromatography—Tandem Mass Spectrometry Using Methyl Ethyl Ketone as a Deproteinization Solvent http://www.treatment-skincare.com/Myristyl-Nicotinate/Plasma-Levels.html Myristyl nicotinate (Nia-114) is an ester prodrug being developed for delivery of nicotinic acid (NIC) into the skin for prevention of actinic keratosis and its progression to skin cancer.

To facilitate dermal studies of Nia-114, a novel liquid chromatography—tandem mass spectrometry (LC—MS/MS) method using methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) as a deproteinization solvent was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of Nia-114, NIC, and nicotinamide (NAM) in rabbit plasma. ...

The Mechanisms of Action of Nicotinamide and Zinc in Inflammatory Skin Disease http://www.treatment-skincare.com/Niacin/Inflammatory-Skin-Disease.html Nicotinamide (niacinamide), a physiologically active form of niacin (nicotinic acid), in combination with zinc is being assessed in clinical studies for the treatment of inflammatory skin diseases such as acne vulgaris and bullous pemphigoid.

The basis for these investigations is the variety of potential mechanisms of action of nicotinamide and zinc, including an anti-inflammatory effect via inhibition of leukocyte chemotaxis, lysosomal enzyme release, lymphocytic transformation, mast cell degranulation, bacteriostatic effect against Propionibacterium acnes, inhibition of vasoactive amines, preservation of intracellular coenzyme homeostasis, and decreased sebum production. ...

Sodium ascorbyl phosphate and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate are more stable than ascorbyl palmitate http://www.treatment-skincare.com/Ascorbyl-Palmitate/AP-vs-SAP-vs-MAP.html The stability of ascorbyl palmitate, sodium ascorbyl phosphate and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate in topical formulations was investigated by direct reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography after sample dilution with a suitable buffer — organic solvent mixture. Ascorbyl palmitate, sodium ascorbyl phosphate and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate are derivatives of ascorbic acid which differ in hydrolipophilic properties. They are widely used in cosmetic and pharmaceutical preparations. According to the results, ascorbyl esters showed significant differences: sodium ascorbyl phosphate and magnesium ascorbyl phosphate are more stable derivatives of vitamin C than ascorbyl palmitate and may be easily used in cosmetic products.

Ascorbyl palmitate is not significantly effective against inhibiting UVB induced skin erythema http://www.treatment-skincare.com/Ascorbyl-Palmitate/UVB-Erythema.html This paper assesses the suitability of UVB induced skin erythema measured by reflectance spectrophotometry in humans as a model for differentiating topical efficacy of free radical scavengers. Two different formulations (aqueous gels and O/W emulsions) of each active compound (tocopherol, tocopherol acetate, superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione, ascorbyl palmitate) were tested on healthy human volunteers before and after skin exposure to UVB radiation. Skin erythema was monitored by calculating erythema index values from the skin spectral data obtained using a reflectance spectrophotometer. The free radical scavengers tested were not able to inhibit UVB induced skin erythema from both formulations when they were topically applied before UVB irradiation. Applying the free radical scavenger formulations after skin exposure to UVB radiation, glutathione and SOD showed the best ability in inhibiting the induced erythema (percentage inhibition 53.3 and 41.6%, respectively from gels). Tocopherol and tocopherol acetate inhibited UVB skin erythema by 27% while ascorbyl palmitate showed a poor efficacy. For all the active compounds tested, no significant difference was observed comparing the results obtained from gels to those from emulsions. Liposomal gel formulations containing the free radical scavengers which showed the best activity (SOD and glutathione) were prepared and topically applied after skin exposure to UVB radiation. SOD and glutathione liposomal formulations were more effective than the corresponding conventional gels. The proposed model, if validated by further studies, could be useful for differentiating the effectiveness of free radical scavengers in inhibiting photoaging due to long-term sunlight skin exposure.

    Collagen Types http://www.treatment-skincare.com/Glossary/Collagen/Types.html Collagen is a protein that makes up most of the dermis, the middle layer of the skin. Collagen forms a network of fibers that provides a framework for the growth of cells and blood vessels, and also acts as the support structure for the skin. In young skin, the collagen framework is intact and the skin remains moisturized and elastic. Over time, collagen fibers loosen and unravel, and skin loses its elasticity.

    Decipering of Telomerase Structure Opens Door To New Cancer, Aging Treatments http://www.treatment-skincare.com/Telomerase/Structure.html Researchers at The Wistar Institute have deciphered the structure of the active region of telomerase, an enzyme that plays a major role in the development of nearly all human cancers.

    Effect of Skinceuticals Intense Line Defense's Lactic Acid Content on Skin Hydration/Volume/Fine Lines/Deeper Wrinkles http://www.treatment-skincare.com/Skinceuticals/Resurfacing/Line-Defense/Lactic-Acid.html Lactic acid contained in Skinceuticals Intense Line Defense acts to draw water up from the dermis into the epidermis to plump the skin from within, reducing the appearance of deeper wrinkles (and if used consistently, eliminating fine lines).

    The nature of results obtainable from Skinceuticals Intense Line Defense's implementation of lactic acid is governed by the pre-existing health of the skin, in particular its endogenous hydration, barrier properties and the overall shape of a user's skin care.

    Low Network Antioxidants Intake and Heart Disease http://www.treatment-skincare.com/Selenium/Selenium-References/Low-Antioxidants.html Antioxidants are crucial components of fruit/vegetable rich diets preventing cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer: plasma vitamins C, E, carotenoids from diet correlate prevalence of CVD and cancer inversely, low levels predict an increased risk of individuals which is potentiated by combined inadequacy (e.g., vitamins C + E, C + carotene, A + carotene); self-prescribed rectification of vitamins C and E at adequacy of other micronutrients reduce forthcoming CVD, of vitamins A, C, E, carotene and conutrients also cancer; randomized exclusive supplementation of beta-carotene +/- vitamin A or E lack benefits except prostate cancer reduction by vitamin E, and overall cancer reduction by selenium; randomized intervention with synchronous rectification of vitamins A + C + E + B + minerals reduces CVD and counteracts precancerous lesions; high vitamin E supplements reveal potentials in secondary CVD prevention. Plasma values desirable for primary prevention: > or = 30 mumol/l lipid-standardized vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol/cholesterol > or = 5.0 mumol/mmol); > or = 50 mumol/l vitamin C aiming at vitamin C/vitamin E ratio > 1.3-1.5; > or = 0.4 mumol/l beta- (> or = 0.5 mumol/l alpha+ beta-) carotene.
