Argireline in Treatment of Periorbital Wrinkles
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether La Jolie gel is effective in the treatment of periorbital wrinkles.
Detailed Description
Argireline has mechanism of action that significantly inhibited neurotransmitter release with a potency similar to that of BoNTA. Inhibition of neurotransmitter release was due to the interference of the hexapeptide with the formation and/or stability of SNARE complex. Notably, this peptide did not exhibit in vivo oral toxicity nor primary irritation at high doses. These findings demonstrate that Argireline is a anti-wrinkle peptide that emulates the action of currently used BoNTs. In vivo study, Topical Argireline 10% is applied on lateral preorbital area twice daily for 30 days. The result demonstrates a significant anti-wrinkle activity by decreased skin wrinkle 30%. These findings demonstrate a significant anti-wrinkle activity for Argireline, in agreement with its in vitro and cellular activities. Topical Argireline represents a bio-safe alternative to BoNTs in anti-wrinkle therapy.
