elastin is a surface protective agent used in cosmetics to alleviate the effects of dry skin, enhance skin flexibility, improve skin feel, increase and improve the tension of the skin, and influence the formation of tropocollagen fibers when used in combination with soluble collagen. Preparations containing elastin and peptides derived from it are reported to promote wound healing. Reportedly, in such systems, elastin can absorb lipids from the skin, and when applied to scars, increase the structural glycoproteins and elastin available in the scar tissue. elastin is an elastic structural protein found in the dermis together with collagen, and is difficult to obtain in pure form. Collagen and elastin are similar, although elastin has a different amino acid composition and is found in lower concentrations. Its molecular size is also much smaller than collagen’s, and as a result, there is a tendency to believe that it penetrates the surface epidermal layers, thereby improving overall skin appearance, softness, and suppleness. elastin is often used in moisturizing products and those products for aging or mature skin. | [Modulus of Elasticity]

| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Definition]
A fibrous protein that is themajor constituent of the yellow elasticfibres of connective tissue. It isrich in glycine, alanine, proline, andother nonpolar amino acids that arecross-linked, making the protein relativelyinsoluble. Elastic fibres canstretch to several times their lengthand then return to their original size.Elastin is particularly abundant inelastic cartilage, blood-vessel walls,ligaments, and the heart. | [Description]
Elastin is an extracellular matrix protein encoded by the gene ELN, which is mapped to human chromosome 7q11.23. Elastin is a major protein component of elastic fibres and is synthesized from the precursor protein called tropoelastin. Elastin is present in all the vertebrates except for the primitive fish. Elastin is majorly composed of glycine, proline and other hydrophobic residues.

Protein responsible for the elasticity of many tissues. It is especially important in blood vessels, where it comprises about 50% of the dry tissue weight. | [Biological Functions]
Elastin has inherent signaling properties that promote diverse responses, including chemotaxis, cell growth, and tissue homeostasis. Elastin and derivatives (tropoelastin and elastin derived peptides) can be used in the production of elastin-based materials and as surface coatings for polymers to improve cell adhesion and function on tissue engineered products.
