the present study was designed to investigate the protective effect of ethanol extracts from lindera coreana leaves (lce) on uvb-induced oxidative stress in hacat keratinocytes. the hacat cells were pretreated with lce for 24 h and then exposed to uvb (20 mj/cm2) for 2 h. uvb significantly decreased the cell viability (p<0.05). lce did not exhibit significantly cytotoxic effects and increased t...

The present study was designed to investigate the protective effect of ethanol extracts from Lindera coreana leaves (LCE) on UVB-induced oxidative stress in HaCaT keratinocytes.

Exposure of epidermal keratinocytes to UVB radiation leads the intracellular formation tryptophan photoproducts which subsequently activate aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) induce mal-/adaptive stress responses. Previously, we have found that AHR represses nucleotide excision repair and apoptosis in UVB-irradiated thereby contributes skin photocarcinogenesis mice. The mechanisms by interferes wi...

givotia rottleriformis has been used in the indigenous systems of medicine for the treatment of inflammatory diseases like rheumatism and psoriasis. in order to evaluate this information, antipsoriatic activity of three flavonoids isolated from the ethanol extract of the bark of givotia rottleriformis were investigated using in-vitro and in-vivo model, namely rutin (i), luteolin-7-o-β-d-glucuro...

Though melatonin was known to regulate gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) in chick astrocytes and mouse hepatocytes, the underlying mechanism by melatonin was not elucidated in hydrogen peroxide- (H(2)O(2)-) treated HaCaT keratinocyte cells until now. In the current study, though melatonin at 2 mM and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) at 300 μM showed weak cytotoxicity in HaCaT kerati...

HaCaT cells are the immortalized human keratinocytes and have been extensively used to study the epidermal homeostasis and its pathophysiology. T helper cells play a role in various chronic dermatological conditions and they can affect skin barrier homeostasis. To evaluate whether HaCaT cells can be used as a model cell system to study abnormal skin barrier development in various dermatologic d...

BACKGROUND Condyloma acuminatum (CA) is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases and induced by low-risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs), mainly HPV type 6 and 11. Here, we report the identification of (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) by an HPV11 infection cell model. RESULTS The recombined HPV11.HaCaT cells had stable HPV 11 early genes expression. The introducing of HPV11 gen...

Marine Streptomyces are prolific producers of majority of bioactive secondary metabolites which are used in pharmaceutical industry as effective drugs against life threatening diseases. The cytotoxic activity of the pure compound 1, 2- benzene dicarboxylic acid, mono 2- ethylhexyl ester (DMEHE) from marine derived actinomycete Streptomyces sp. VITSJK8 was investigated against mouse embryonic fi...
