While adipose-derived stem cell-conditioned medium (ADSC-CM) has been demonstrated to promote skin wound healing, the mechanism regulating this effect remains unelucidated. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of Ell3 in the wound healing activity of ADSC-CM. In vitro analysis revealed that Ell3 suppression in ADSCs impairs the promotive activity of ADSC-CM on the proliferation and migration of mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) and normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF). Consistently, the expression of MMP family genes, which regulate cell proliferation and migration, was significantly suppressed in MEF and NHDF treated with siEll3-transfected ADSC-CM. Proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin-1 and interleukin-6, were highly expressed in MEF treated with siEll3-transfected ADSC-CM. The wound healing activity of siEll3-transfected ADSC-CM was significantly lower than that of the control in vivo. Our results suggest that Ell3 may contribute to the inhibition of inflammatory response during skin wound healing.

The production of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) by the UV irradiated skin fibroblast and the degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) by these enzymes is known as one of the main reasons of photoaging. In this paper, to investigate the relationship between aging and Selaginella tamariscina extract (STE), we investigated the effects of antioxidant and expression of UVA-induced MMP-1 in human dermal fibroblasts. STE was found to show scavenging activities of radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) with the $IC_{50}$/ values of 65.1 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ against 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) radical and 40.9 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ against superoxide radicals in the xanthine/xanthine oxidase system, respectively. UVA induced MMP expression was reduced 75.5% by treatment with STE, and MMP-1 mRNA expression was reduced in a dose-dependent manner. Therefore STE was able to significantly inhibition of MMP expression in protein and mRNA level. All these results suggested that STE may act as an anti-aging agent by antioxidation and reducing UVA-induced MMP-1 production.

Although many studies have been performed to elucidate the molecular consequences of ultraviolet irradiation, little is known about the effect of natural products. Ultraviolet irradiation is widely considered to be an environmental stress. Here we investigated the effect of 2',4',7-trihydroxyisoflavone on the regulation of MMP-1 and type 1 procollagen in Ultraviolet irradiation of cultured human dermal fibroblasts. Phytochemical investigation of the whole plants of Viola hondoensis led to the isolation of five flavonoids. The structures of these compounds were identified 2',4',5,7-tetrahydroxyisoflavone (1), 2',4',7-trihydroxyisoflavone (2), 4',7-dihydroxyflavone (3), isoorientin (4), and isovitexin (5) using spectroscopic analysis. Among these, 2',4',7-trihydroxyisoflavone reduced the expression of MMP-1 at the protein levels in a dose-dependent manner by ultraviolet irradiation. Taken together, our results suggest that 2',4',7-trihydroxyisoflavone an important role in the reduction of MMP-1 induction by ultraviolet irradiation.

Prolonged exposure to solar ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation has been known to cause premature skin aging (photo-aging). UVA radiation generates ROS thereby induce degenerative changes of skin such as degradation of dermal collagen, elastic fibers. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), the proteolytic enzymes have been implicated as a major player in the development of UVA-induced photo-aging. Many studies have been conducted to block the harmful effects of UV radiation on the skin. Recently, we are interested in the availability of fermented red ginseng (FRG) as natural matrix metalloproteinases inhibitors (MMPIs). The efficacy difference between red ginseng and FRG has been compared. Both RG and FRG have no cytotoxic effects below the concentration of $300{\mu}g/ml$. Human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) were pretreated with FRG or RG for 24h, followed by irradiation of UVA. Then, we measured the intracellular ROS production and the expression of MMP, $IL-1{\beta}$ at the mRNA level. We also examined the intracellular localization of $NF-{\kappa}B$ and MMP-9 on the FRG or RG treated and UVA-irradiated HDFs. FRG decreased the intracellular ROS production elicited by UVA. In addition, FRG decreased the mRNA expression of MMP-3, MMP-9, and $IL-1{\beta}$ more efficiently than RG. Furthermore, FRG suppressed the nuclear localization of $NF-{\kappa}B$, and the expression of MMP-9. Taken together, our results suggest that FRG is promising agents to prevent UVA-induced photo-aging by suppressing MMP expression and inflammation.

Ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure is a risk factor for skin damage resulting in oxidative stress, inflammation, and cell death. The purpose of this study was to investigate the physicochemical properties of Platycodon grandiflorum (PG) to improve its biological activities using a three-step steaming process. We investigated the protective effects of PG and steamed PG extracts on human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) against UVB radiation-induced oxidative stress and inflammation as well as the underlying mechanisms. The antioxidant potential of the PG extracts was evaluated by measuring the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) scavenging activity. ABTS and DPPH were shown by the 0, 30, and 70% ethanol extracts of 2S-PG and 3S-PG ($IC_{50}$, 28~45 and $27{\sim}30{\mu}g/mL$, respectively). Treatment of UVB-irradiated cells with steamed PG ($25{\sim}400{\mu}g/mL$) did not affect their viability. The streamed PG extract suppressed UVB-induced generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In addition, streamed PG extract reduced cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) protein expression in UVB-irradiated HDF, regulating nuclear factor $(NF)-{\kappa}B$ expression. These findings suggest that steamed PG extract may be potentially effective against inflammation associated with UVB-induced oxidation stress.

In this study, we prepared CheonJeongKiBo-Dan(7 oriental medicinal plants, 7OMP: Astragalus Membranaceus root, Panax Ginseng root, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (licorice) root, Schizandra Chinensis fruit, Polygonatum Odoratum, Rehmannia Glutinosa root, Paeonia Albiflora root) by extracting them in one reactor and studied its efficacies on skin. UV irradiation has been suggested as a major cause of photoaging in skin. In order to investigate protective effects against UV-B induced cellular damage, 7OMP was extracted with 70% ethanol and dissolved in DMSO. The protective effect was detected by MTT assay, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, phosphorylation of ATR and p53 in human dermal fibroblast cell system after UV-B irradiation. 7OMP reduced UV-B-induced cellular damage in HDFs cells, and inhibited ROS generation. UV-B-induced toxicity accompanying ROS production and the resultant DNA damage are responsible for activation of ATR, p53 and Bad. In this study, 7OMP hampered phosphorylations of ATR and p53 in human dermal fibroblasts. Therefore, 7OMP may be protective against UV-induced skin photoaging.

잎새버섯(Grifola frondosa HB0071)이 생산하는 세포외 다당체인 GF-glucan이 사람섬유아세포에서 자외선(UVA)조사 시 증가되는 MMP-1 발현에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 자외선으로부터 조사된 섬유아세포에 GF-glucan을 처리한 농도에 따라 MMP-1 발현이 억제되었으며, RT-PCR를 이용해 세포내 MMP-1 mRNA 발현 또한 감소하는 것으로 나타났다 즉, 최대 GF-glucan $0.5\%$를 처리했을 때 $54.4\%$의 MMP-1 발현을 억제하였다. 결과적으로, 잎새버섯 HB0071로부터 생산된 GF-glucan은 피부노화와 관련된 extracellular matrix (ECM) 조직에 손상을 주는 MMP-1의 활성을 억제하여 자외선으로부터 손상된 피부의 광노화로부터 보호해주는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

Porous scaffolds composed of gelatin and polysaccharides such as hyaluronic acid and $\beta$-glucan were prepared by using the freeze-drying method after cross-linking with l-ethyl-(3-3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC). The scaffold had an inter-connected pore structure with the sufficient pore size for use as a support for the growth of fibroblasts. Results for the contact angle and cell attachment confirmed that high gelatin content in a mixture was suitable for cellular attachment and distribution in two- or three-dimensional fibroblast cultures. However, the addition of polysaccharides aroused the synergistic effects of morphologic and mechanical property of gelatin-based scaffolds. To prepare the artificial dermis for the wound dressing to mimic the normal human dermal skin, fibroblasts were isolated from a child's foreskin, and cultured in gelatin-based scaffolds. An in vivo study showed that the artificial dermis containing the fibroblasts enhanced the wound healing rate and re-epithelialization of a full-thickness skin defect rather than the acellular scaffold after one week.

피부 섬유아세포는 인간 피부의 주요 콜라겐 생산 세포이다. 노화가 진행되면, 섬유아세포에서의 콜라겐 생산이 감소되고, matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1)에 의해 시작되는 콜라겐 조각화가 증가된다. 즉 섬유아세포의 콜라겐 항상성의 불균형으로 인해 피부 collagenous, 세포외기질(ECM)의 구조와 기능이 변형되어, 피부노화가 촉진되는 것이다. Cysteine rich protein 61 (CCN1)는 CCN family의 일부이며, 인간피부의 섬유아세포에서 콜라겐 항상성을 조절하는 단백질이다. 노화된 인간 피부 섬유아세포에서의 CCN1 과 발현은 실질적으로 유형 I procollagen 생성을 감소시킴과 동시에 MMP-1의 발현을 증가시켜 섬유의 콜라겐 저하를 일으킨다. 그리고 노화된 섬유아세포는 노화 전 섬유아세포에 비해 증식률이 감소한다. 본 연구에서 만들어 사용한 복제 노화 피부 섬유아세포는 유형 I procollagen의 생성량이 감소하였고, MMP-1의 발현 수준이 증가하는 특징을 나타냈다. 또한 CCN1 단백질의 발현이 증가되고, 증식률이 감소하는 특징을 나타냈다. 가수분해 구멍갈파래 추출물은 노화 전 섬유아세포에서 새로운 콜라겐의 합성을 촉진하고 자외선에 의해 증가된 MP-1의 발현을 감소시켜 광노화를 개선하는 물질로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 활성을 나타내는 가수분해 구멍갈파래 추출물을 사용하여, 복제 노화 피부 섬유아세포에서 가수분해 구멍갈파래 추출물에 의한 CN1 단백질의 발현 억제 여부를 조사하였으며, 이들 추출물은 배양된 복제 노화 피부 섬유아세포에서 유형 I procollagen의 생성을 증가시켰으며, MMP-1 발현을 억제시키는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 콜라겐 항상성을 조절하는 단백질인 CN1 발현을 크게 감소시켰으며, 노화세포의 증식률을 증가시켰다. 이 결과는 복제 노화 섬유아세포가 in vitro 자연 노화모델로 화장품 원료 활성 연구에 사용될 수 있음을 말한다. 그리고 가수분해 구멍갈파래 추출물은 광노화 뿐 아니라 자연노화를 개선하는 피부미용제로 주름개선 기능성 화장품에 사용가능 하다는 것을 의미한다.

Bioflavonoids have been regarded as therapeutic agents for a wide range of disease including cancer. The increase of matrix metalloproteinases expression is a key event in several pathological conditions, e.g., dermal photocarcinogenesis, tumor initiation, invasion and metastasis. In this study, we investigated effects of quercetin, a major bioflavonoid in human diet, on matrix metalloproteinase (MMR)-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-9 mRNA expression during cellular aging in cultured human foreskin fibroblast.
