The objective of this paper is related to the evaluation of the potential role of an artichoke ethanolic extract (AEE), recovered from undersized heads, in promoting the endothelial cell functions and stimulating the gene expression of some youth associated markers, with the main goal of characterizing it as cosmetic anti-age ingredient.
