Abstract
Double-strand RNA(dsRNA), which can induce inflammation, can be generated by necrotic keratinocytes in the skin environment. As an analog of dsRNA, polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly(I:C)) is used to induce inflammation via the Toll-like Receptor 3 (TLR3) signaling pathway. Inotodiol, isolated from Inonotus obliquus, known as Chaga mushroom, is a natural lanostane-type triterpenoid with significant pharmacological activity and notable anti-inflammatory effects. However, the functions of inotodiol on dsRNA-induced inflammation in human dermal fibroblast (HDFs) remains unclear. In this study, we evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of inotodiol inflammation induced on by poly(I:C) in HDFs. After pre-treatment with inotodiol, poly (I:C) was used to induce inflammation. Subsequently, mRNA expression and protein secretion of inflammatory cytokines, as well as TLR3 signaling protein levels were assessed. Inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α's increased mRNA expression by poly(I:C) in HDFs was significantly suppressed in the inotodiol pre-treatment group in a dose-dependent manner. A similar pattern was evaluated in the protein levels of these three cytokines. The inflammatory signals of TLR3 via p-IKK, p-p38, and NF-κB was reduced by inotodiol pre-treatment. Taken together, inotodiol possesses strong anti-inflammatory activity against poly(I:C)-induced inflammation in HDFs. Therefore, our findings support potential application of inotodiol as an effective anti-inflammatory agent in cosmetics.

Abstract
The increase in ambient fine dust particles (FDP) due to urbanization and industrialization has been identified as a major contributor to air pollution. It has become a serious issue that threatens human health because it causes respiratory diseases and skin aging. In the present study, the protective effect of the green tea catechin, (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), against FDP (ERM-CZ100)-stimulated skin aging in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) was investigated. The results demonstrate that EGCG significantly and dose-dependently scavenged intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in and increased the viability of FDP-stimulated HDFs. In addition, EGCG dose-dependently recovered collagen synthesis and inhibited intracellular elastase and collagenase activities. Moreover, EGCG decreased the expression of human matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) via regulation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), activator protein 1 (AP-1), and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) signaling pathways in FDP-stimulated HDFs. This study suggests that EGCG is a potential anti-aging candidate that can be used for FDP-induced skin aging as a therapeutic agent itself or as an ingredient in pharmaceutical and cosmeceutical products.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the effects of low-dose aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) on photoaging in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) and to explore the mechanism of Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)-mediated photorejuvenation in vitro. METHODS A photoaging model was established through repeated exposure of HDFs to UVA. Total superoxide dismutase (SOD) expression was detected by a SOD activity assay. Nrf2 was knocked down through adenovirus infection, and successful knockdown was confirmed by Western blot analysis and quantitative polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS Sustained exposure to UVA induced photoaging in HDFs. Total SOD activity was significantly increased by low-dose aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-PDT. Upon application of low doses of ALA-PDT to photoaging HDFs, Nrf2 was translocated to the nucleus; in addition, the expression of Nrf2, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), type I and III collagen (COL1 and COL3), heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), and p-ERK was increased, while the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) was decreased. However, after Nrf2 was knocked down in HDFs, the expression of TGF-β1, COL1, COL3, and HO-1 was significantly decreased, while the expression of MMP-9 was increased. CONCLUSION This study revealed that low-dose ALA-PDT decreases UVA-mediated photoaging through an Nrf2-mediated antioxidant effect.

Abstract
The multiple physiological effects of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) as a functional food component have been recently reported. We previously reported that GABA upregulated the expression of type I collagen in human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs), and that oral administration of GABA significantly increased skin elasticity. However, details of the regulatory mechanism still remain unknown. In this study, we further examined the effects of GABA on elastin synthesis and elastin fiber formation in HDFs. Real-time PCR indicated that GABA significantly increased the expression of tropoelastin transcript in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, the expression of fibrillin-1, fibrillin-2, and fibulin-5/DANCE, but not lysyl oxidase and latent transforming factor-β-binding protein 4, were also significantly increased in HDFs. Finally, immunohistochemical analysis confirmed that treatment with GABA dramatically increased the formation of elastic fibers in HDFs. Taken together, our results showed that GABA improves skin elasticity in HDFs by upregulating elastin synthesis and elastin fiber formation.

Abstract
Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AdMSCs) have been reported to have therapeutic benefit in skin. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of AdMSCs in UV-irradiated human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) for therapeutic potential in skin wrinkling. UV irradiation, a model naturally mimic skin wrinkle formation, is known to increase matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), making MMP-1 a target for skin photoaging. Our findings identified that AdMSCs reduce MMP-1 level in UV-irradiated HDFs and increase type 1 procollagen in HDFs. A dose-dependent increase in type 1 procollagen was confirmed by AdMSC-conditioned medium. Importantly, our current findings showing the effects of AdMSCs on the induction of MMP-1 in UV-radiated HDFs and the expression of collagen in HDFs can provide an evidence of relationship between MMP-1 and procollagen production for the protection against wrinkle formation. Collectively, AdMSCs may contribute to anti-wrinkle effects in skin but further experiments are needed to identify the mechanism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Changes in skin connective tissues mediated by ultraviolet (UV) radiation have been suggested to cause the skin wrinkling normally associated with premature aging of the skin. Recent investigations have shown that peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) δ plays multiple biological roles in skin homeostasis. OBJECTIVE We attempted to investigate whether PPARδ modulates elastin protein levels and secretion of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 in UVB-irradiated human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) and mouse skin. METHODS These studies were undertaken in primary HDFs or HR-1 hairless mice using Western blot analyses, small interfering (si)RNA-mediated gene silencing, and Fluorescence microscopy. RESULTS In HDFs, UVB irradiation induced increased secretion of MMP-2 and reduced levels of elastin. Activation of PPARδ by GW501516, a ligand specific for PPARδ, markedly attenuated UVB-induced MMP-2 secretion with a concomitant increase in the level of elastin. These effects were reduced by the presence of siRNAs against PPARδ or treatment with GSK0660, a specific inhibitor of PPARδ. Furthermore, GW501516 elicited a dose- and time-dependent increase in the expression of elastin. Modulation of MMP-2 secretion and elastin levels by GW501516 was associated with a reduction in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in HDFs exposed to UVB. Finally, in HR-1 hairless mice, administration of GW501516 significantly reduced UVB-induced MMP-2 expression with a concomitant increase in elastin levels, and these effects were significantly reduced by the presence of GSK0660. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that PPARδ-mediated modulation of MMP-2 secretion and elastin expression may contribute to the maintenance of skin integrity by inhibiting ROS generation.
