Gyrophoric Acid

This research was conducted to identify the anti-aging effects of gyrophoric acid on the skin, using normal human dermal fibroblasts. The anti-aging effects of gyrophoric acid on dermal fibroblasts were demonstrated through cell viability, verification of collagen, type I, alpha 1 (COL1A1)/COL3A1/matrix metalloproteinases 1 (MMP1) messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) expression levels with quantitative real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction, and protein estimation using type I collagen/MMP1-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Further, the effects of gyrophoric acid on superoxide dismutases (SODs)/catalase were investigated by assessing their mRNA expression. In ultraviolet A (UVA)-treated dermal fibroblasts, gyrophoric acid was observed to increase mRNA levels of COL1A1/COL3A1/SOD2 genes and type I collagen protein levels, consistent with its anti-aging role. Furthermore, gyrophoric acid treatment decreased both MMP1 mRNA and protein expression levels. Therefore, the results of this study demonstrate that gyrophoric acid can be considered as an important natural compound with potent anti-aging effects on the skin. Based on the findings of this study, further research about the mechanism of action of gyrophoric acid should be pursued so as to develop novel anti-aging strategies not only in the field of cosmetics but also for healthcare.

Chronological Aging

Cutaneous aging is divided into intrinsic and exogenous aging correspondingly contributing to the complex biological phenomenon in skin. Intrinsic aging is also termed chronological aging, which is the accumulation of inevitable changes over time and is largely genetically determined. Superimposed on this intrinsic process, exogenous aging is associated with environmental exposure, mainly to ultraviolet (UV) radiation and more commonly termed as photoaging. UV-induced skin aging induces increased expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) which in turn causes the collagen degradation. Therefore, MMP inhibitors of natural origin are regarded as a primary approach to prevent or treat photoaging. This study investigated the effects of 3,5-dicaffeoyl-epi-quinic acid (DEQA) on photoaging and elucidated its molecular mechanisms in UVA-irradiated human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs). The results show that treatment with DEQA decreases MMP-1 production and increases type I collagen production in UVA-damaged HDFs. In addition, treatment of UVA-irradiated HDFs with DEQA downregulates MMP-1, MMP-3 and MMP-9 expression via blocking MAPK-cascade-regulated AP-1 transcriptional activity in UVA-irradiated HDFs. Furthermore, DEQA relieves the UVA-mediated suppression of type I procollagen and collagen expression through stimulating TGF-β/Smad signaling, leading to activation of the Smad 2/3 and Smad 4 nuclear translocation. These results suggest that DEQA could be a potential cosmetic agent for prevention and treatment of skin photoaging.

Leukoregulin (LR), a T-cell-derived growth factor, modulates fibroblast functions in vitro [Mauviel, Rédini, Hartmann, Loyau & Pujol (1991) J. Cell Biol. 113, 1455-1462]. In the present study, incubation of human dermal fibroblasts with LR (0.1-2 units/ml) resulted in decreases in the mRNA steady-state levels for alpha 1(I), alpha 2(I) and alpha 1(III), but not alpha 2(V), collagen genes. LR also down-regulated alpha 2(I) collagen promoter activity in transient cell transfections of control cells as well as those incubated with transforming growth factor-beta, a potent up-regulator of collagen type I gene expression. Thus LR is a strong inhibitor of type I collagen gene expression, acting at the level of transcription.
