Acné L'acné (nom féminin) est une dermatose (maladie de la peau) inflammatoire des follicules pilosébacés (glandes sécrétant le sébum, à la racine des poils) avec formation de comédons.
Cette maladie de la peau est représentée dans sa forme la plus fréquente par l'acné polymorphe juvénile qui touche les adolescents, mais qui ne résume pas toutes les acnés. Il existe aussi des acnés exogènes d'origine professionnelle, médicamenteuse, cosmétique... Antioxydants Cosmétiques Fullerènes Peau -- Maladies Peau -- Soins et hygiène

Résumé : |
Acne vulgaris is a common dermatological disease with a multifactorial etiology. There has been an increasing focus on the role of oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of acne in recent years.
Research has indicated that oxygen radical scavengers have potential as therapeutic agents for acne vulgaris. Fullerene (C60) is a collective term for spherical carbon allotropes that are potent antioxidants and reportedly react with various oxygen chemical species such as free radicals. It has been found that water-soluble fullerene inhibited the peroxidation of squalene induced by ultraviolet B. Moreover, Inui et al. reported that fullerene had a suppressive effect on sebum secretion.1 Inui et al. also performed a clinical test using fullerene gel for the treatment of acne vulgaris; the mean number of inflammatory lesions decreased significantly after treatment for 8 weeks. Fullerene gel improved the acne vulgaris without causing any dryness of the skin or any changes in its barrier functions. The safety of fullerene material has been demonstrated by toxicity tests required for the approval of fullerene as an additive in quasi-drugs. These studies suggest that fullerene is a safe and novel skin care treatment for acne vulgaris. In this review, we report on aspects of the topical application of fullerene for the treatment of acne. |
