StratiCELL and Neuron Experts (France) join forces to develop a unique model of cocultured reconstructed human epidermis and human sensory neurons. In this combined « RHE-huSN » model, human sensory neurons are derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), and are growing in the immediate vicinity of 3D reconstructed human epidermis, i.e. on the backside of the polycarbonate support.

This innovative skin model allows to study the soothing properties of cosmetic ingredients or formulated products on sensory skin.
