Vytrus Unveils Plant Exosomes for Skin and Hair Care and the Concept of Exosomic Peptides
Innovation in the Cosmetic Industry
Vytrus Biotech, the company specializing in active ingredients derived from plant biotechnology for the cosmetic industry, has presented its latest research at in-cosmetics Global in Paris. The main focus: plant exosomes for skin and hair care, along with the concept of Exosomic Peptides.
What Are Exosomes?
Exosomes, also known as ectosomes or small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), are naturally secreted by cells and contain DNA, RNA, lipids, proteins, and other bioactive compounds. Vytrus considers them “natural biological communicators” that transport relevant information.
Benefits of Plant Exosomes
Within the cosmetic industry, exosomes provide various beneficial properties:
- Anti-inflammatory and anti-aging effect.
- Immunomodulatory properties.
- Healing and regeneration.
- Synthesis of extracellular matrix proteins (collagen, elastin, etc.).
- Skin protection and microbiota modulation.
Innovation in Cross-Kingdom Communication
Vytrus has unveiled structurally intact natural plant exosomes, transferred from the plant to the human body thanks to cosmetics. These exosomes are similar to mammalian ones, allowing for effective cross-kingdom communication in cosmetics.
Thanks to Vytrus’s technology platforms, it is possible to customize and guide plant cells to produce different types of exosomes for skin and hair care.
Customization and Production
The Curcuma longa cell cultures developed by Vytrus Biotech include a high concentration of exosomes in the billions. These exosomes have very interesting applications in improving skin hydration and regeneration, as well as increasing hair density and delaying hair loss.
Vytrus has also developed Centella asiatica cell cultures with a high concentration of exosomes in the billions. These natural exosomes have the potential to encapsulate and protect compounds of interest such as growth factors, proteins, and peptides.
These Centella exosomes are capable of activating skin gene expression patterns related to aging, the skin barrier, and hydration in keratinocytes (increased expression of type I collagen, inhibition of elastase, etc.) with potent regenerative and anti-wrinkle effects on the skin. A cocktail of properties leading to the reversal of cellular senescence.
With the aim of advancing the most cutting-edge cosmetic science, Vytrus has also analyzed the content of its plant exosomes. After extensive research, the biotechnology company has found an astonishing diversity of plant peptides within its natural plant exosomes, coined by Vytrus as Exosomic Peptides for the first time in cosmetics. This great diversity of different peptides identified in Vytrus exosomes provides a huge cocktail of natural plant peptides with anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, and anti-wrinkle activities, among others.
Concrete Examples
- Curcuma longa:* Cell cultures with applications in hydration, regeneration, and hair density.
- Centella asiatica:* Exosomes capable of activating skin gene expression patterns related to aging and hydration.
