Research on Exosomes is getting a lot of attention!

It has become clear that organs communicate with each other using “message substances”, but in recent years, “exosomes” called “message substances” have been attracting attention. There are “certain features” that are different from the conventional ones, and applied research for treatments that make use of them is progressing.

Exosomes are capsule-like substances produced by cells. Exosomes have been linked to skin aging. A major French cosmetics company has revealed that skin cells are exchanging exosomes. The cells that make up the skin, called keratinocytes, secrete exosomes when exposed to UV light. Then, another cell melanocyte receives it, and this time it secretes a substance called melanin. It is known that this melanin protects the skin from UV rays, but it causes stains and freckles.

In addition, exosomes secreted from mesenchymal stem cells are highly effective in regenerating blood vessels and skin, and are effective in suppressing various inflammations. In addition, it can be expected to have the effect of activating somatic stem cells distributed throughout the body and inducing body regeneration.

Research and application of exosomes to skin care has just begun, but there are good reasons to expect exosomes and related products to bring even more surprises. JHc continues to research and develop exosome skin care products and strives to bring new beauty products to everyone as soon as possible.
