Description

Betamethasone valerate (BMV) is a synthetic glucocorticoid that is commonly used to treat psoriasis and dermatitis. BMV exhibits immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and vasoconstrictive activity in vitro and in vivo. Across animal models of varying ages, BMV impairs maturation and viability of Langerhans and epidermal cells. BMV also decreases endogenous phospholipase activity and inhibits vasodilatory responses in skin; this partial vasoconstriction decreases blood flow, often resulting in a decrease in local TGF-β1 levels.
