Progerin inhealthycells
The same molecular mechanisms responsible for premature aging in progeria act at low level in healthy cells

Progerin is expressed in healthy cells (fibroblasts and terminally differentiated keratinocytes mainly) and
accumulated with age (3% per year)

Cell nuclei from old individuals acquire defects similar to those of progeria patient cells

Hormesis concept

Hormesis : homeostatic and adaptative beneficial response of cells to microstress


exposure in order to correct a physiological imbalance

The word hormesis comes from the greek root hormeticos, which means
stimulation and the first mention of the term hormesis in the open scientific literature was published in 1943

+ + +

Concept launched by Givenchy with Vaxin (2010) :


This vaccinelike serum is formulated with a unique complex capable of generating microstimuli, which encourage the skin's cells to produce their own agedefying protein HSP70

Lipohormesis Newproprietarypatentedconcept 2
Lipohormesis = hormesis applied to adipose tissue Various stresses in the adipose tissue are able to stimulate its expansion through the
activation of Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF1), a transcription factor
