UV, stress and aging

چکیده
Skin is a model of choice in studies on aging. Indeed, skin aging can be modulated by internal and external factors, reflecting its complexity. Two types of skin aging have been identified: intrinsic, mainly genetically determined and extrinsic-also called "photo-aging"-resulting on the impact of environmental stress and more precisely of UV rays. Simplified in vitro models, based on cellular senescence, have been developed to study the relationship between UV and aging. These models vary on the cell type (fibroblasts or keratinocytes, normal or immortalized) and the type of UV used (UVA or UVB).

Andrographolide Sodium Bisulfate Prevents UV-Induced Skin Photoaging through Inhibiting Oxidative Stress and Inflammation
Andrographolide sodium bisulfate (ASB), a water-soluble form made from andrographolide through sulfonating reaction, is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory drug; however, the antiphotoaging effect of ASB has still not been revealed. Oxidative stress and inflammation are known to be responsible for ultraviolet (UV) irradiation induced skin damage and consequently premature aging. In this study,...
متن کاملEmission spectra and transient photovoltage in dye-sensitized solar cells under stress tests
Dye-sensitized solar cells have been tested before, during, and after stress tests performed either under intense Xe-lamp illumination (equivalent to 1 sun up to 2.5 sun) or under thermal cycles between room T and 80 C. In-situ emission spectra and transient photovoltage decay curves have been taken to monitor the cell aging conditions. Incipient degradation phenomena in aged cells can be detec...
متن کاملPhotoaging and Glycation of Elastin : Effect on Skin
Introduction At anti-aging medical institutions, clinicians assess the degree of aging by determining functional ages, including muscular, vascular, neural, hormone and bone ages, while identifying risk factors for accelerated aging, such as immune stress, oxidative stress, mental and physiological stress, glycative stress and poor lifestyle 1, 2). Aging is accompanied by various degenerative c...
متن کاملThe Role of Antioxidants in Skin Cancer Prevention and Treatment
Skin cells are constantly exposed to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress from exogenous and endogenous sources. UV radiation is the most important environmental factor in the development of skin cancer and skin aging. The primary products caused by UV exposure are generally direct DNA oxidation or generation of free radicals which form and decompose extremely quickly but can prod...
متن کاملOxidative stress and CCN1 protein in human skin connective tissue aging
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) is an important pathogenic factor involved in human aging. Human skin is a primary target of oxidative stress from ROS generated from both extrinsic and intrinsic sources, like ultraviolet irradiation (UV) and endogenous oxidative metabolism. Oxidative stress causes the alterations of collagen-rich extracellular matrix (ECM), the hallmark of skin connective tissue ...
