Chang and B.F. Zheng) undergoes periodic dehydration and rehydration cycles, necessitating robust adaptive mechanisms. Despite extensive research on its physiological responses to desiccation stress, the comprehensive metabolic pathways and recovery mechanisms post-rehydration remain poorly understood. This study investigated the metabolic responses of <i>P. haitanensis</i> to varying degrees of desiccation stress using LC-MS and UPLC-MS/MS. Under mild dehydration, the thallus primarily accumulated sugars and proline, while moderate and severe dehydration triggered the accumulation of additional osmoprotectants like alanine betaine and trehalose to maintain turgor pressure and water retention. Concurrently, the alga activated a potent antioxidant system, including enzymes and non-enzymatic antioxidants, to counteract the increased reactive oxygen species levels and prevent oxidative damage. Hormonal regulation also plays a crucial role in stress adaptation, with salicylic acid and jasmonic acid upregulating under mild dehydration and cytokinins and gibberellin GA<sub>15</sub> accumulating under severe stress. Rehydration triggered the recovery process, with indole acetic acid, abscisic acid, and jasmonic acid promoting rapid cell recovery. Additionally, arachidonic acid, acting as a signaling molecule, induced general stress resistance, facilitating the adaptation of the thallus to the dynamic intertidal environment.

This study screened multifunctional peptides from <i>Takifugu fasciatus</i> skin for transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1)-inhibitory and anti-inflammatory activities and investigated their mechanisms in alleviating sensitive skin (SS). A low-molecular-weight hydrolysate was prepared through enzymatic hydrolysis of <i>T. fasciatus</i> skin, followed by ultrafiltration, with subsequent peptide identification performed using nano-HPLC-MS/MS and molecular docking-based virtual screening. Among 20 TRPV1-antagonistic peptides (TFTIPs), QFF (T10), LDIF (T14), and FFR (T18) exhibited potent anti-inflammatory effects in (lipopolysaccharide) LPS-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages. T14 showed the strongest TRPV1 inhibition; T14 (200 μM) inhibited Ca<sup>2</sup>⁺ in capsaicin-stimulated HaCaT cells by 73.1% and showed stable binding in molecular docking, warranting further analysis. Mechanistic studies revealed that T14 suppressed NF-κB signaling by downregulating p65 protein expression, thereby reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion (G-CSF, GM-CSF, ICAM-1, IL-6, TNF-α) in RAW 264.7 cells. Additionally, T14 (400 μM) inhibited ET-1 in LPS-stimulated endothelial cells by 75.0%; ICAM-1 reached 49.0%. Network pharmacology predicted STAT3, MAPK3, SPHK1, and CTSB as key targets mediating T14's effects. These study findings suggest that T14 may be a promising candidate for skincare applications targeting SS.</p>","PeriodicalId":18222,"journal":{"name":"Marine Drugs","volume":"23 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12113342/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144150961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
