Abstract

Purpose: This study investigated functional cosmetic agent for anti-wrinkle effects of 'NEOGEN V.BIOME LIPOSOME™', which is a liposome in the form of a proprietary technology including a vitamin C active ingredient, on human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs).Methods: The cytotoxicity of 'NEOGEN V.BIOME LIPOSOME™' was measured by performing a water-soluble tetrazolium salt (WST-1) assay. The relative mRNA expression of collagen (COL1A1 ) and hyaluronan synthase (HAS2) was measured by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) assay.Results: HDF cell viability of 'NEOGEN V.BIOME LIPOSOME™' was no cytotoxic effect at concentrations below 0.25%. The expression of COL1A1 and HAS2 mRNA was increased in a concentration-dependent manner compared with the negative control group.Conclusion: “NEOGEN V.BIOME LIPOSOME™“ helps to increase collagen and hyaluronan synthase production by promoting COL1A1 and HAS2 mRNA expression in HDFs; therefore, it is expected to function as an anti-wrinkle cosmetic material.
