Abstract: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of a combination of triiodothyroacetic acid (TRIAC) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) compared with TRIAC, DHEA or placebo alone on corticosteroid induced effect on collagen synthesis in humans. Six healthy male human volunteers aged 40-65 participated. Four areas of abdominal skin were pre-treated for 3 weeks with betamethasone valerate cream. The same areas were then treated with one of the following alternatives in the same cream vehicle: TRIAC, DHEA, TRIAC+DHEA and placebo for 2 weeks. Then suction blisters were raised in each of these areas with a vacuum pump. The blister fluid from each area was collected and frozen until analysis. Analysis of amino terminal propeptide of human type I procollagen (PINP) in suction blister fluid was performed using a commercially available immunoassay (Orion Diagnostics) kit.

Abstract: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of a combination of triiodothyroacetic acid (TRIAC) and dehydroepiandrosterone (OHEA) compared with TRIAC, DHEA or placebo alone on corticosteroid induced effect on collagen synthesis in humans. Six healthy male human volunteers aged 40-65 participated. Four areas of abdominal skill were pre-treated for 3 weeks with betamethasone valerate cream. The same areas were then treated with one of the following alternatives in the same cream vehicle: TRIAC, DHKA, TWAC+DHEA and placebo for 2 weeks. Then suction blisters were raised in each of these areas with a vacuum pump. The blister fluid from each area was collected and frozen until analysis. Analysis of amino terminal propeptide of human type I procollagen (MNP) in suction blister fluid was performed using a commercially available immunoassay (Orion Diagnostics) kit.
