BackgroundSince women pay more attention to their skin's health, pharmaceutical companies invest heavily on skin care product development. Further, the success of drug nano-carriers in passing through the skin justifies the need to conduct studies at the nano-scale. 1-integrin down regulation has been proposed as a sign of skin aging.MethodsSix drug nano-carriers (50 and 75nm) were prepared at three ethanol concentrations (0, 3,and 5%) and different temperatures. Then, the impact of Nanocarriers on fibroblasts were investigated.ResultsDLS showed that increasing ethanol concentration decreased the surface tension that caused a decrease in the particle size in non-temperature formulations while increasing the temperature to 60 degrees C to lower Gibbs free energy increased the particle size. Ethanol addition decreased 1-integrin over-expression, whereas larger nano-carriers induced an over-expression of 1-integrin, Bcl2/Bax ratio, and an increase in live cell number. 1-integrin over-expression did not correlate with the rate of fibroblast proliferation and NFB expression. An increase in fibroblast mortality in relation to smaller nano-carriers was not only due to the increase in Bax ratio, but was related to NFB over-expression.ConclusionThe development of a regenerative pharmaceutical approach in skin repair was based on the effect of particle size and ethanol concentration of the drug nano-carriers on the expression of 1-integrin in fibroblasts. A curcumin nanoformulation sized 77nm and containing of 3% ethanol was more effective in increasing 1-integrin gene over-expression, anti-apoptosis of fibroblast cells (Bcl2/Bax ratio), and in decreasing Bax and NFB gene expression than that with a particle size of 50nm. Such a formulation may be considered a valuable candidate in anti-aging and wound-healing formulations.
