Abstract
Repetitive exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation causes skin damage, leading to inflammation, wrinkles, and aging. Many natural products are being highlighted as anti-aging agents due to their accessibility and minor side effects. Here, we explored the photoprotective effects of a standardized hot water extract from the aerial parts of Cirsium setidens (Dunn) Nakai (CS). In Hs68 cells, CS treatment reduced UVB-induced cytotoxicity and inflammation. CS decreased matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-1, −3) expression by inactivating the MAPK/activator protein-1 (AP-1) signaling pathways and recovered pro-collagen type I levels by activating the Smad pathway. CS reduced ROS production and activated heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)/nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathway. In HR-1 mice, oral administration of CS reduced wrinkle formation and epidermal/dorsal thickness, while also restoring hydration. CS inhibited collagen degradation by downregulating MMP-1, −3, and − 9 expression via inactivation of the MAPK/AP-1 and stimulation of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β)/Smad signaling pathways.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Functional Foods continues with the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. We give authors the possibility to publish their top-quality papers in a well-established leading journal in the food and nutrition fields. The Journal will keep its rigorous criteria to screen high impact research addressing relevant scientific topics and performed by sound methodologies.
The Journal of Functional Foods aims to bring together the results of fundamental and applied research into healthy foods and biologically active food ingredients.
The Journal is centered in the specific area at the boundaries among food technology, nutrition and health welcoming papers having a good interdisciplinary approach. The Journal will cover the fields of plant bioactives; dietary fibre, probiotics; functional lipids; bioactive peptides; vitamins, minerals and botanicals and other dietary supplements. Nutritional and technological aspects related to the development of functional foods and beverages are of core interest to the journal. Experimental works dealing with food digestion, bioavailability of food bioactives and on the mechanisms by which foods and their components are able to modulate physiological parameters connected with disease prevention are of particular interest as well as those dealing with personalized nutrition and nutritional needs in pathological subjects.
