Description of Pro-xylane

Pro-xylane is a bioactive C-glycoside derived from Fagus sylvatica xylose. Pro-xylane stimulates the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and hyaluronic acid to fill the extracellular matrix and lock in moisture, while strengthening the dermo-epidermal junction by promoting the synthesis of type IV and VII collagens. Pro-xylane can be used in studies related to skin anti-aging and chronic wound healing[1-4].

In vitro, epidermal keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts were treated with Pro-xylane (1–3mM) for 48 hours. Pro-xylane significantly induced filaggrin expression and promoted α-smooth muscle actin generation, while inhibiting the secretion of the inflammatory factor prostaglandin E2[5]. Pro-xylane (0.3–3mM) was applied to dermal fibroblasts for 72 hours. Pro-xylane significantly stimulated the synthesis of sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)[6].

Protocol of Pro-xylane

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Human dermal fibroblasts (normal human dermal fibroblast, NHDF)

Preparation Method

Normal human dermal fibroblast (NHDF) monolayers were cultured in control medium with or without Pro-xylane at the indicated concentrations for 72h at 37°C in humid atmosphere of 95% air and 5% CO₂, and labeled with ³⁵S-sulfur during the final 24h.

Reaction Conditions

0.3mM-3.0mM; 72h

Applications

Pro-xylane significantly stimulated the biosynthesis of sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) by human fibroblasts in a dose-dependent manner, as evidenced by the increased incorporation of ³⁵S-radioactivity into the isolated GAG fraction.
