However, it is difficult to really enjoy a regularly undisturbed sleep of 7-9 hours per night.
A survey conducted among adults in 13 countries revealed that on average, people sleep 6.8 hours per weeknight and 7.5 hours per weekend night. Hence, the amount of sleep lost during the working week is not compensated over the weekend. Moreover, only 49% of adults are satisfied with their sleep.
The recent COVID-19 pandemic has only worsened our sleep quality. Another recent survey among US adults displayed that 98% have developed new sleep problems, and 68% feel it is harder to sleep even after measures were lifted. An additional survey showed that 60% of adults are interested in strategies to sleep better, what is known as biohacking sleep.Note de contenu : - A new tool to 'biohack' sleep

InterleukinesLes interleukines (IL) sont un groupe de cytokines, ainsi nommées car les premières observations semblaient montrer qu'elles étaient exprimées par les globules blancs (leucocytes, d'où -leukin) en guise de moyen de communication (d'où inter-). Les interleukines sont produites par une large variété de tissus et cellules, et que, bien que regroupées sous cette terminologie par commodité, elles ne présentent aucune parenté biochimique ni de fonction entre elles. Elles ont été classées par numéro au gré des découvertes. Au début 2006, 31 cytokines sont connues et dénommées sous l'intitulé IL.
La fonction du système immunitaire dépend en grande partie des interleukines et de rares déficiences de certaines d'entre elles ont été décrites, conduisant à des maladies auto-immunes ou des immunodéficiences.

SommeilIndex. décimale : 668.5 Parfums et cosmétiques Résumé : Regularly skipping sleep is associated with chronic low inflammation, oxidative stress and weakened immune system. These three factors are interconnected and all of them generate further inflammation, oxidative stress and worsen the immune system.
The alarmin interleukin IL-33 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine released upon cell damage activating the immune response and inducing oxidative stress and further inflammation. IL-33 is over-expressed in conditions of chronic inflammation like a topic dermatitis and obstructive sleep apnea.
Sleep disturbance also presents high levels of glucose which may glycate proteins of the skin and the endothelial and lymphatic vessels, weakening their integrity and producing oxidative stress and more inflammation. In addition, melatonin levels are decreased, which not only affects its circadian role but also as a potent antioxidant and antiglycant.
iPeptide™ is a peptide that was discovered to down-regulate IL-33 expression through a Big Data analysis. It showed to modulate chronic inflammation and damages induced by hyperglycemia due to sleep deprivation. It also presented a melatonin-like protection effect and reinforced the first line of immune defense. In vivo, it decreased fatigue features, awakened sleepy lookand had a local cool effect.Note de contenu : - MATERIALS AND METHODS : Gene expression modulation of sleep deprivation – Modulation of IL-33 release – Regulating hyperpigmentation – De-stressing capillarity – Reinforcing lymphatic integrity – Melatonin-like protection against glycation and lipid peroxidatione – Melatonin-like modulation of the epidermal immune protection – Guarding from hyperglycemia damage – Anti-fatigue efficacy in sleep deprived volunteers – Refreshing effect in sleep deprived volunteers

Peau -- Soins et hygièneIndex. décimale : 668.5 Parfums et cosmétiques Résumé : The skin around the eyes, also known as the periocular area, shows expressions and emotions that are an important part of our personality. One of the first facial areas where visible signs of aging begin to emerge is around the eyes. In fact, the eyes are the focal point of the face and the apparition of bags, dark circles and wrinkles, gives to face a tired appearance and/or make one to look and feel a lot older than she/he really is. We present a new cosmetic Mediterranean active ingredient, Meiviewâ„¢, an exclusive bacterial ferment extract derived from an endophyte Bacillus, found in Mallorca (Spain), living in symbiosis with one of the most salt tolerant halophilic plant (Arthrocnemum macrostachyum). Meiviewâ„¢ presents a broad-spectrum of eye care efficacy. In addition, its efficacy was tested in vivo in women and men volunteers.
