Research Abstract |
We studied about the liniment of senile xeroderma using beta-1,3-1,6-glucan (β-glucan) derived from Aureobasidium pullulans and the deep-sea water (DSW). In this study, we showed the effect of β-glucan and DSW for senile xeroderma in HOS-HR dermatitis model mice induced by TNCB. As a result, β-glucan was effective for a palliation of symptom in senile xeroderma a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, we made clear that β-glucan had an effect to inhibit eosinophilic degranulation.
