Aging Overview

External factors

External factors: Azelaic acid
Aging type: Prevent
Aging characteristic:
Category: Chemical compounds
Phenotype: Aging
Experimental category: L
Tissue type: Foreskin
Cell name: HDF
PMID: 23278893
Experiment: SA-β-gal activity assay//Cell morphological analysis//qRT-PCR//ELISA
Description: AzA partly counteracted the cell shape change,AzA treatment after PUVA significantly reduced the SA-β-gal staining intensity .Supplementation with AzA significantly decreased MMP-1 protein concentrations and counteracted the PUVA-induced downmodulation of type I pro-collag.


Regulatory relationship

Target gene: PPARγ
R-EF-Target gene: Activation
Official symbol(s): PPARG
Target gene experiment: Luciferase reporter assay
Target gene description: Our results showed a significant induction of the PPAR-γctranscriptional activity after 24 and 48 h of AzA treatment. Interestingly, PUVA exposure decreased luciferase expression at 24 and 48 h, and AzA 2.5 mM partially counteracted this effect.
