The potential of polyphenols\u0000in controlling skin aging has been the subject of much investigation throughout the\u0000years. Due to their complex molecular pathways, polyphenols, a broad class of bioactive substances\u0000present in large quantities in plants, have emerged as attractive candidates for skin anti-aging\u0000therapies. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the molecular mechanisms\u0000through which polyphenols exert their anti-aging effects on the skin. Various chemical\u0000mechanisms contribute to reducing skin aging signs and maintaining a vibrant appearance. These\u0000mechanisms include UV protection, moisturization, hydration, stimulation of collagen synthesis,\u0000antioxidant activity, and anti-inflammatory actions. These mechanisms work together to reduce\u0000signs of aging and keep the skin looking youthful. Polyphenols, with their antioxidant properties,\u0000are particularly noteworthy. They can neutralize free radicals, lessening oxidative stress that might\u0000otherwise cause collagen breakdown and DNA damage. The anti-inflammatory effects of polyphenols\u0000are explored, focusing on their ability to suppress pro-inflammatory cytokines and enzymes,\u0000thereby alleviating inflammation and its detrimental effects on the skin. Understanding these\u0000mechanisms can guide future research and development, leading to the development of innovative\u0000polyphenol-based strategies for maintaining healthy skin.\u0000","PeriodicalId":11008,"journal":{"name":"Current aging science","volume":"10 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140441563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dysregulation of intracellular regulation mechanisms is catastrophic and cumulates into cell death. To overcome the issue of dysregulation of intracellular regulation mechanisms, the preservation of subcellular and extracellular components is essential to maintain healthy cells with increased longevity. Several physiopathological changes occur during cell ageing, one of which is the dysregulation of intracellular physiology of the oxidative phosphorylation process.

Simultaneously, several other pathophysiological occur that collectively impair intracellular homeostasis. The NMN role in the antiaging effect remains unclear and several hypotheses have been introduced into describing the mechanism and the potential outcomes from NMN exogenous supply. Correction of the impaired intracellular homeostasis includes correction to the NMN metabolism. Additionally, autophagy correction, which is the key element in the regulation of intracellular intoxication, including oxidative stress, unfolding protein response, and other degradation of intracellular metabolites. Several signaling pathways are involved in the regulation mechanism of NMN effects on myocardiocyte health and further longevity. NMN protects myocardiocytes from ischemic injury by reducing anabolism and, increasing catabolism and further passing the myocardiocytes into dormant status. NMN applications include ischemic heart, disease, and failed heart, as well as dilated cardiomyopathies. Cytosolic and mitochondrial NADPH are independently functioning and regulating.

Non-coding RNAs can be employed in detecting and treating CRC. Non-coding RNAs play an essential role in regulating gene expression. This article reviews ncRNAs and their expression levels in CRC patients that could be used as potential biomarkers.

Therefore, it is pertinent to explore the role of biopolymers as antiaging formulations and the possibility of these formulations being used against cancer via topical administrations. As UV radiation is one of the predominant factors in causing skin cancer, the association of receptors between aging and cancer indicated that insulin receptor, melatonin receptor, toll-like receptor, SIRT 1 receptor, tumor-specific T cell receptor and mitochondria-based targeting could be used to direct therapeutics for suppression of cancer and prevent aging. Biopolymer-based nanoformulations have tremendously progressed by entrapment of drugs like curcumin and resveratrol which can prevent cancer and aging simultaneously. Certain protein signaling or calcium and ROS signaling pathways are different for cancer and aging. The involvement of mitochondrial DNA mutation along with telomere shortening with a change in cellular energetics leading to genomic instability in the aging process can also induce mitochondrial dysfunction and epigenetic alterations leading to skin cancer.
