CyPA™ paves the way for enhancing skin elasticity and removing wrinkles
Cyclic lysophosphatidic acid (CyPA) is a novel lysophospholipid with a highly unique structure. The phosphate groups form a ring through ester bonds within the molecules. CyPA™ is a biological component present in trace quantities in human serum and tears. Many reports have been issued on the functions of CyPA™, ranging from anti-cancer activity to nerve regeneration and more.
In addition, CyPA™ has been found to have numerous positive effects on skin treatment. Accordingly, we have been manufacturing CyPA™ from soybean lysolecithin through an enzyme process, and we have applied it to cosmetics.
