Skin aging is a complex process which involves all the layers of the epidermis and dermis.\nIn order to slow skin aging, methods are researched which would strengthen and protect skin\nstem cells. Science is in search of the right method to stimulate the proliferation of epidermal stem\ncells. Plant stem cells show outstanding anti-aging properties, as they can, among other activities,\nstimulate fibroblasts to synthesise collagen, which, in turn, stimulates skin regeneration. One of\nthe most important agents which give anti-aging properties to plant stem cell extracts is kinetin\n(6-furfuryladenine). This compound belongs to a cytokine group and is considered to be a strong\nantioxidant which protects protein and nucleic acids from oxidation and glycoxidation processes.\nIt enables cells to remove the excess of free radicals to protect them from oxidative stress.
