Optimization of Phenolic Compounds Extraction from Flax Shives and Their Effect on Human Fibroblasts

Figure 6

Influence of flax shives extracts on the level of expression of genes involved in extracellular matrix remodelling (collagen type 1, alpha 1; collagen type 1, alpha 2; collagen type 3, alpha 1; matrix metalloproteinase 1; matrix metalloproteinase 2, metalloproteinase inhibitor 1) in normal dermal human fibroblast. The analyses were performed in three biological replicates. For the determination of statistical significance Student’s -test was used (, , and ).
