New Anti-Aging Cream Promises to Heal Aging Skin
While searching for diabetes and cancer treatment, scientists from Dynamis Therapeautics, Inc., have stumbled onto what they call an amazing anti-aging cream.
It turned out the way to prevent damage to cells in those diseases may help our skin as well. What they found was 3-Deoxyglucosone or 3-DG, a molecule that can damage cells.
“It probably is contributing to diabetic blindness and kidney disease and heart disease,” researcher Frank Kappler said.
Drugs designed to prevent the formation of 3-DG were tested, with unexpected results.
“I noticed that the skin of the animals that had gotten our compound was really different from the diabetic animals that were not treated,” said researcher Annette Tobia.
The treated rats had skin that was soft and elastic. The team quickly realized the potential benefit to humans.
“That in combination with some other things we put together seems to reverse skin aging and the skin just goes from looking old, to looking new,” Kappler said.
The results are quick. “It looks like you see a reasonable effect within about a month.”
The science that created the anti-aging cream may also help diabetics.
Dynamis Therapeautics is planning to release its anti-aging cream to the public before the end of the year and profits will be used to support further diabetes and cancer research.
