Аннотация
Glucocorticoids (GCs) belong to the most widely used anti-inflammatory drugs at all. However, their topical use is limited by their side effect potential, with skin atrophy being the most prominent one. Thus, determining the atrophogenic potential of novel compounds is of importance for drug development. Currently, the most frequently performed model in the base and pharmaceutical research is the hr/hr rat model of GC-induced skin atrophy that lasts for 19 days. In this study, we analysed statistically skin atrophy experiments retrospectively to ascertain (i) the earliest time-point, at which skin atrophy is significantly induced; and (ii) whether the differences between the GC treatment groups change until the end of the experiment. We show here that the treatment duration of rat skin atrophy models might be reduced to 5 days for economical and ethical reasons.
