EpiCalsome™
Supramolecular calcium for barrier repair
EpiCalsome™ is a new superior calcium delivery system to protect and renew the skin. The novel technology encapsulates calcium ions with phospholipids of the highest quality, making calcium optimally bioavailable to the skin.
Calcium ions (Ca2+) serve as essential signaling molecules, regulating numerous cellular functions in keratinocytes including proliferation and differentiation. EpiCalsome™ represents a new superior supramolecular structure, for simple and efficient delivery of bioavailable calcium to the skin. Our lab used phospholipids of the highest quality to encapsulate calcium ions, forming the innovative Ca2+ double cone vector system.
In vitro
- Improves epidermis stratification at low calcium levels
- Increases loricrin expression /barrier at low calcium levels
In vivo
- Pretreatment of the skin: Preventive protection against stress (TEWL, irritations)
- Posttreatment of the skin: Faster recovery after stress (TEWL, irritations)
