in vitro alternative method test

china is a big country in the production and consumption of skin care products. in recent years, with the improvement of the national income level and the upgrading of consumption concepts, the market size of skin care products has expanded significantly, and the competition in the industry has become increasingly fierce. at a time when new brands, new effects, and new ingredients are constantly emerging, consumers pay special attention to the safety of product ingredients and the authenticity of their effects. the state food and drug administration's inspection and supervision of endless skin care products on the market is also increasing year by year.

with the increasingly strict requirements of the eu cosmetic regulations on the prohibition of laboratory animals, banned and restricted substances and microorganisms in cosmetics, and the continuous promotion of the 3r (replace, optimize, and reduce) principles of laboratory animal ethics, the reduction and cancellation of cosmetic animal testing for safety evaluation has been more and more countries recognized.

noa provides cosmetics safety and efficacy evaluation services for enterprises based on new technologies such as cell culture, tissue engineering and systems biology with professional testing capabilities and a first-class in vitro efficacy testing platform. at the same time, noa can provide one-stop targeted solutions according to the specific needs of enterprises, helping enterprises to develop and innovate.

q&a

what is the chicken embryo villous allanic membrane? why can using chicken embryo villous allanic membrane predict eye irritation?

chicken embryo villus allantoic membrane test is an early adopted method of ocular irritation in vitro evaluation. the villus allantoic membrane (cam) is a respiratory membrane, surrounded by the chicken embryo, and its structure is similar to the eye conjunctiva.

this experiment uses the characteristics of the complete, clear and transparent, to observe the toxic effect index (such as bleeding, coagulation, and vascular melting), which reflect the morphology, color, and permeability of the protein degeneration and the damage, and to evaluate the ocular irritation of the subject.

what are the dangers of reactive oxygen free radicals (ros) to the skin?

reactive oxygen species (ros) are chemically reactive chemicals containing oxygen. examples includesuperoxide，hyperoxide， hydroxy radical, singlet oxygen, and α -oxygen. when the skin receives external factors of stimulation, including radiation, cigarette smoke, air pollution, etc., reactive oxygen species production increases significantly.

the overproduction of free radicals is the main factor causing skin aging.

free radicals will attack the skin cell membranes, destroy the normal structure of the skin cells, making them lose their original function, which can also lead to skin aging. in addition, reactive oxygen free radicals are able to activate melanocyte proliferation and tyrosinase-related gene expression through multiple signaling pathways to improve melanin synthesis. thus resulting in melanin deposition, dark skin, color spots and other problems.

the role of mitochondria in skin aging?

skin aging is the result of the loss of cell function, and external factors can further accelerate the loss of cell function. mitochondria play an important role in skin function, and mitochondrial damage has been found not only to accumulate in skin cells with age, but also in response to sunlight and pollution. increasing evidence suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress are key features of all aging tissues, including the skin. this is directly related to the skin aging phenotype: wrinkle formation, hair whitening and shedding, uneven pigmentation, and slow wound healing. loss of barrier function during skin aging increases susceptibility to infection and affects wound healing. therefore, understanding the relevant mechanisms is important for both clinical research and the development of anti-aging skin care products.

the relationship between t rpv1 and soothing efficacy?

the surface of keratinocytes will express some receptors that can feel temperature and pain, such as trp, the most typical trp receptors including capsaicin receptor (trpv1), external or endogenous stimuli will activate trpv1, thus causing ca2 influx, resulting in increased skin permeability, tingling and burning sensation. meanwhile, trpv1 also promotes the release of neurogenic inflammatory factors, including substance p, which can further induce the molecules of inflammatory factors, leading to local telangiectasia.

therefore, we can evaluate the soothing efficacy of the objects to be tested by detecting the changes in trpv1 expression amount, calcium ion content, and inflammatory factors.
