Preventhelia® peptide solution
Preventhelia® peptide solution is a tetrapeptide that prevents damage caused by UV radiation to DNA and proteins, protecting the skin from photoaging. It is recommended for incorporation into daily cosmetic formulations where a photoprotective effect is desired, and it is also suitable for use in sun care products.

- HIGHLIGHTS
UVA and UVB cause different biological effects on the skin. UVA radiation penetrates the epidermis resulting in damage to the dermis. Furthermore, UVA is mainly responsible for indirect DNA damage. Meanwhile, UVB is mostly absorbed in the epidermis and its main mechanism of action is the direct interaction with DNA via induction of DNA damage. In the aging process, the various DNA repair systems decrease their ability, as a result of the accumulation of mutagenic DNA photoproducts.; Reactive carbonyl species (RCS) are potent mediators of cellular carbonyl stress originating from chemical processes. Trans-4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) is one of the most abundant and cytotoxic of the RCS. HNE reacts with a variety of nucleophilic sites in DNA and proteins, generating various types of adducts. Intracellular RCS are suggested to play an important role in oxidative stress through their inhibitory effect on DNA repair mechanisms as well as on induction of DNA damage through its direct interaction with repair proteins.; Preventhelia® peptide is born from preventive cosmetics and protects skin cells from UVA-induced DNA damage, providing protection to the skin from intrinsic and extrinsic aging.
