Abstract
Ultraviolet B (UVB) is a major external factor causing ultraviolet damage. This study assessed the protective effects of Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides (DOP) from both stems and leaves on UVB-induced skin damage in HaCaT Human Keratinocytes. Notably, stem DOPs (DOP1J, DOP3J, and DOP8J) outperformed leaf DOPs (DOP1Y, DOP3Y, and DOP8Y) in mitigating UVB-induced damage, with DOP1J and DOP8J demonstrating the highest efficacy in preserving cell proliferation. The DOPs exhibited antioxidant properties by enhancing superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase activities, and reducing reactive oxygen species levels. They curtailed cellular aging by inhibiting UVB-induced protein phosphorylation of p38, JNK, and ERK1/2 within the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway and by suppressing the protein expression of p53 and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs, including MMP-1 and MMP-9). The mechanism underlying DOPs’ protective effects appears to be a dual-action approach: bolstering antioxidant defenses and dampening the MAPK pathway’s activation, thereby hindering the expression of MMPs.
期刊介绍:
The FSB journal covers food chemistry and analysis for compositional and physiological activity changes, food hygiene and toxicology, food microbiology and biotechnology, and food engineering involved in during and after food processing through physical, chemical, and biological ways. Consumer perception and sensory evaluation on processed foods are accepted only when they are relevant to the laboratory research work. As a general rule, manuscripts dealing with analysis and efficacy of extracts from natural resources prior to the processing or without any related food processing may not be considered within the scope of the journal. The FSB journal does not deal with only local interest and a lack of significant scientific merit. The main scope of our journal is seeking for human health and wellness through constructive works and new findings in food science and biotechnology field.
