Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant effects of water-soluble fullerene derivatives against ultraviolet ray or peroxylipid through their action of scavenging the reactive oxygen species in human skin keratinocytes.

TL;DR: In this paper, PEG-modified fullerene, hydroxy-fullerene and isostearate-mixed fullerenes were shown to scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the nuclei of UVB-irradiated human skin HaCaT.
Journal ArticleDOI

ACE2: The key Molecule for Understanding the Pathophysiology of Severe and Critical Conditions of COVID-19: Demon or Angel?

TL;DR: The role of ACE2 in the pathogenesis of severe and critical conditions of COVID-19 is explained and auspicious strategies for controlling the disease are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The water-soluble fullerene derivative "Radical Sponge" exerts cytoprotective action against UVA irradiation but not visible-light-catalyzed cytotoxicity in human skin keratinocytes.

TL;DR: Cytoprotection by Radical Sponge against UVA was achieved at the advisable range doses of 10-40 microM in contrast to no effect of polyvinylpyrrolidone alone; its dose- dependency was advantageous over that of VC-IP, a tetra-alkyl-esterized provitamin C, which became less cytoprotective above 20 microM.
Journal ArticleDOI

From regenerative dentistry to regenerative medicine: progress, challenges, and potential applications of oral stem cells

TL;DR: Experimental and clinical data indicate that the cell sheets can not only safely and effectively reconstruct the damaged cornea in humans, but also repair esophageal ulcer in animal models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibitory effect of the water-soluble polymer-wrapped derivative of fullerene on UVA-induced melanogenesis via downregulation of tyrosinase expression in human melanocytes and skin tissues.

TL;DR: Radical Sponge showed to significantly inhibit UVA-promoted melanogenesis in normal human epidermis melanocytes and human melanoma HMV-II cells within a non-cytotoxicity dose range, and demonstrated the stronger anti-melanogenic potential according to spectrophotometric quantification for extracted melanin.
