UV radiation-induced damage is mediated by highly unstable and reactive molecules, named reactive oxygen species (ROS). To counteract ROS, the skin has an endogenous antioxidant system. Considering that, many sunscreens incorporate antioxidant substances to ensure additional photochemioprotective action in the formulation. Syringic acid (SA) is classified as a phenolic acid derived from hydroxybenzoic acid. It has antioxidant properties, which can reduce oxidative stress, and has shown potential to prevent skin cancer. The aim of this study was to assess the ability of SA to protect L-929 fibroblasts from UVB radiation by evaluating oxidative stress biomarkers. As a result, we demonstrated the antioxidant activity of SA through four methodologies, and confirmed the photochemioprotective activity of SA by attenuating the cytotoxicity of UVB radiation in L-929 fibroblasts. The mechanisms involved in the photoprotection of SA include a significant reduction in total ROS, maintenance of mitochondrial membrane potential, decrease in lipid peroxidation, preservation of endogenous antioxidant system enzymes and reduced glutathione (GSH) levels, thereby mitigating the ultrastructural damage caused by UVB. Additionally, SA showed promising results in wound healing. Considering such properties, SA emerges as a strong candidate for incorporation into photoprotective and multifunctional formulations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16772,"journal":{"name":"Journal of photochemistry and photobiology.

The highest proliferation rates (6.21 for <em>S. atropatana</em> and 4.26 for <em>S. bulleyana</em>) were achieved under white LEDs. In contrast, the highest biomass production was observed under white and mixed red/blue light (both species), although a similar effect was revealed for the blue light treatment for <em>S. bulleyana</em>.

The effects of the light treatments on gene expression varied between plant species and the analyzed gene; for example, mixed light stimulated <em>RAS</em> expression in <em>S. bulleyana</em> shoots and inhibited it in <em>S. atropatana</em> shoots.

We monitored cultures of wildtype strain (<em>CC125</em>) over five days once they reached stationary phase under both low-light (LL) and high-light (HL) conditions. Under HL, many photosynthetic proteins were degraded but the stress-related light harvesting complex protein (LHCSR) was rapidly induced and contributed to the rapid activation of nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ). However, the LHCSR3-defective mutant (CC4614, <em>npq4</em>) lacked the rapid induction of quenching typical of post-exponential cultures, indicating that LHCSR3 is required for this response in stationary phase. Collectively, the main strategy for photoacclimation in stationary phase appears to be a dramatic reduction of photosystems while maintaining LHCII-LHCSR antenna complexes that prime the antenna for rapid activation of quenching upon light exposure. Part of this response to HL involves a resumption of cell growth after two days, that we hypothesized is due to the stimulation of growth-regulating pathways due to increased metabolite pools from the HL-induced protein turnover in the cell, something that remains to be tested.

Photosensitizers are known to enable such transformations using UV-A and visible light by generating triplet species able to transfer energy to DNA. Conversely, chemiexcitation of DNA is a process related to the formation of high energy peroxides whose decomposition leads to triplet excited species. In practice, both photoexcitation and chemiexcitation produce reactive excited species able to promote some DNA nucleobases to their excited state. We discuss the effect of epigenetic methylation modifications of DNA and the role of endogenous and exogenous photosensitizers on the formation of DNA photoproducts via triplet-triplet energy transfer as well as oxidative DNA damages. The mechanisms of pathogenic pathway involving the generation of CPDs via chemiexcitation (namely dark CPDs, dCPDs) are discussed and compared with photoexcitation considering their spatiotemporal characteristics.

This study also investigated the cellular-level photoprotective effects of eumelanin using <em>Schizosaccharomyces pombe</em> ARC039 as a model organism and its ability to enhance the Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of commercial sunscreens. The thermal and light stability and total phenolic and flavonoid contents were analyzed. Antioxidant activity was assessed using hydroxyl radicals (OH<img>), and superoxide anions (O<sub>2</sub><sup>.-</sup>) radical-scavenging assays. The efficacy of photoprotection was determined using various in vitro methods, yeast cell viability assays, and enhanced SPF values of commercial sunscreen products. Eumelanin NTB 42 exhibited both thermal and photostabilities. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents were reported as 88.82 ± 0.68 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g and 53.24 ± 2.66 mg quercetin equivalent (QE)/g, respectively, representing the first report on microbial eumelanin. Eumelanin NTB 42 demonstrated significant scavenging activity against OH<img> and O<sub>2</sub><sup>.-</sup>. It also displays notable photoprotective effects against UV-B radiation, offering broad-spectrum coverage and optimal protection against UV-A radiation. It effectively acted as a sunblock against UV-A and UV-B radiation. Furthermore, eumelanin NTB 42 enhanced <em>S. pombe</em> ARC039 cell viability after exposure to UV-B and UV-C for 30–90 min. It also augmented the SPF value of commercial products at a minimum concentration of 0.0025 %. These findings highlight the potential antioxidant and photoprotective properties of eumelanin NTB 42, suggesting its applicability as a raw material for sunscreen formulations in the cosmetic industry.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16772,"journal":{"name":"Journal of photochemistry and photobiology.
