Abstract:
The invention relates to the oral or nutraceutical cosmetic use of an effective amount of at least one monounsaturated fatty acid, a salt thereof and/or an ester thereof, as an active agent for treating and/or preventing skin complexion imperfections.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed toward protecting the cosmetic use of at least an effective amount of a lysate of at least one microorganism of the genus Bifidobacterium species, or a fraction thereof, for preventing and/or treating body odor.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the use of at least one probiotic microorganism as an active agent for preventing and/or treating impairments of the skin's microrelief.
Abstract:
Cosmetic use of an effective amount of a lysate of at least one microorganism of the genus Bifidobacterium species and/or one of its fractions in treating and/or preventing dryness and/or associated disorders of a keratinous substance.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use, especially the cosmetic and/or therapeutic use, of the protein DJ-1, of polypeptides derived from this protein or of analogues thereof, of a nucleic acid sequence coding for such a polypeptide or of a modulator of the activity, stability or expression of such a polypeptide, especially for preventing and/or treating the signs of skin dryness. The invention also relates to the use of the protein DJ-1, of polypeptides derived from this protein or of analogues thereof or of a nucleic acid sequence coding for such a polypeptide, as a marker for evaluating the state of dryness of an epithelium.
Abstract:
Novel ceramide compounds, compositions containing them and the use of these compounds, in particular for strengthening the lipid barrier of the epidermis.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the cosmetic treatment of greasy skin and/or skin that tends to be greasy with a lysate of at least one microorganism of the genus Bifidobacterium species and/or a fraction thereof, as an active.
Abstract:
The subject of the present invention is the use, in particular the cosmetic and/or therapeutic use, of the apolipoprotein D, of polypeptides derived from this protein or of analogues thereof, of a nucleic sequence encoding such a polypeptide or of an agent modulating the activity or of the expression of such a polypeptide, in particular for stimulating terminal epithelial differentiation.The invention also relates to the use of the protein apolipoprotein D, of polypeptides derived from this protein or of analogues thereof, or of a nucleic sequence encoding such a polypeptide as a marker for evaluating the state of the epidermis.
Abstract:
The present invention relates, in particular, to the use of a sequence of amino acids of dermicidin or an analogue or fragment thereof, and at least one sequence of nucleic acids coding said sequence as a biomarker for ageing skin and/or the signs of skin ageing which are possibly associated with skin dryness.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the oral or nutraceutical cosmetic use of an effective amount of at least one monounsaturated fatty acid, a salt thereof and/or an ester thereof, as an active agent for treating and/or preventing skin complexion imperfections.
