Abstract

UV radiation exerts various influences in the skin, including photoaging and inflammation (1). The MMPs (Matrix metalloproteinases), which are induced by UV irradiation, can degrade matrix proteins, and these results in a collagen deficiency in photodamaged skin that leads to skin wrinkling. It has been known that the production of PGE$_2$ stimulates MMPs expression, and inhibits procollagen (2). Thus, it is possible that the induction of MMPs and the inhibition of matrix protein synthesis by UV -induced PGE$_2$ may play some role in UV-induced collagen deficiency in photoaged skin. Fructose-1,6-diphosphate (FDP), a glycolytic metabolite, is reported to have cytoprotective effects against ischemia and postischemic reperfusion injury of brain and heart, presumably by augmenting anaerobic carbohydrate metabolism (3). And also, FDP significantly prevent skin aging by decreasing facial winkle compared with vehicle alone after 6 months of use. We studied the mechanism of anti-aging effect of FDP on UVB-irradiated HaCaT keratinocyte model. FDP has protective role in UVB injured keratinocyte by attenuating prostaglandin E$_2$ (PGE$_2$) production and COX-2 expression. And FDP also suppressed UVB-induced MMP-2 expression. Further, to delineate the inhibition of UVB-induced COX-2 and MMPs expression with cell signaling pathways, treatment of FDP to HaCaT keratinocytes resulted in marked inhibition of UVB-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2, JNK. It also prevents UV induced NFB translocation, which are activated by cellular inflammatory signal. Our results indicate that FDP has protecting effects in UV-injured skin aging by decreasing UVB-induced COX-2 and MMPs expression, which are possibly through blocking UVB-induced signal cascades.

자외선은 피부에 염증반응이나 광노화와 같은 다양한 반응을 야기시킨다고 알려져 있다. 특히 자외선에 의해 손상을 받은 피부는 콜라겐의 양이 감소되어 있는데, 이는 자외선에 의해 피부 내에서 콜라겐을 분해하는 효소(MMP, matrix metalloproteinases)의 양이 증가하기 때문이라고 알려져 왔다. 또한 자외선에 의해 피부에서 염증반응이 유발되는데, 이러한 반응은 프로스타글란딘이라는 물질에 의해 매개되며, 이 프로스타글란딘에 의해서도 MMP가 증가한다고 알려져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 6개월의 임상실험을 통해 광노화된 피부에서 주름형성억제효능이 뛰어난 FDP(fructose 1.6-diphosphate)의 작용기전을 인체각질형성 세포를 이용하여 연구하였다. 인체각질형성세포에 자외선을 조사할 경우 프로스타글란딘, COX-2(cyclooxygenase-2), MMPs의 활성이 증가하는 것을 확인하였며, 이는 FDP의 처리에 의해 감소되었다. 이러한 효과는 자외선에 의해 인체각질형성세포에서 발생하는 신호전달과정을 억제함으로써 일어나는 효과임이 증명되었다. 따라서, FDP는 자외선에 의해 일어나는 세포 내 신호전달과정을 억제하며, 이로 인해 야기되는 프로스타글란딘, COX-2, MMPs의 증가를 억제함으로써 피부의 광노화를 억제할 수 있는 원료로 여겨진다.
