About Incospharm Autophagy Ingredients for Cosmetic and Pharmaceutical s What is Autophagy? Accumulation of damaged cellular components is characteristic of tissues in all organisms as they age and has been proposed to be responsible for their functional loss in ageing. Autophagy, a highly conserved catabolic mechanism of quality control inside cells, is essential for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and for the orchestration of an efficient cellular response to stresses. The decrease in autophagic activity in cells may be a driver of different aspects of the ageing phenotype. Thus, enhancement of autophagic activity might decelerate ageing progression by guaranteeing continuous renewal of the cellular proteome, and damaged proteins that are no longer functional, to avoid their accumulation inside cells. In cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries, there is a growing interest in developing ingredients to enhance autophagic activity to slow-down ageing progression.

AQUATIDE 5000 Catalog Number ICP0005 Ingredients for Cosmetic and Pharmaceutical s Increases skin hydration Normalizes TEWL Natural moisturizing factor (NMF) in the stratum corneum has a high moisture retaining efficacy, and plays a major role in the skin barrier function. Skin Hydration TEWL Pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (PCA) is one of the major NMFs found in human skin. Aquatide, PCA-mimetic peptide, increases moisturisation, activates autophagy, reduces Trans Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) and improves the skin barrier function. Autophagy and AQUATIDE 5000 Autophagy is the natural destructive mechanism that allows the orderly degradation and recycling of cellular components. Increased autophagy delays ageing and extends longevity. Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) is a deacetylase, functioning in the regulation of metabolism, cell survival and organismal lifespan. Active SIRT1 regulates the autophagy during cell stress, including calorie restriction and oxidative stress.
