본 연구는 UVB 조사로 인해 발생된 유해산소와 마우스 피부조직 변화에 대한 자초추출물의 유효성을 알아보기 위해 UVB 조사군과 UVB 조사 후 자초추출물을 도포한 군으로 비교 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. CAT, SOD의 활성도에서는 UVB 조사 후 자초추출물 도포군이 UVB 조사군에 비해 유의적으로 감소하였다. 그리고 조직학적 변화에서, UVB 조사군은 표피층이 얇아지며 표피괴사 형태와 진피조직에서 염증세포가 많이 관찰되었다. 또한 표피층이 증식되는 과각화현상이 보이며 표피-진피 능선도 느슨하게 관찰되어졌으며, 모낭의 소실 또한 관찰되었다. UVB 조사 후 자초추출물 도포군에서는 표피층은 더 얇아졌으나 표피 괴사현상은 보이지 않으며 염증부위는 UVB 조사군에 비해 훨씬 경감된 상태였다. 48시간군부터 표피층이 재생되어졌으며, 표피 증식과 과립층의 배열이 억제되고 정상적인 모낭과 표피-진피 능선을 관찰할 수 있었고 168시간군에서는 control 수준으로까지 회복되어진 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 이상 실험결과를 종합해 볼 때, 자초추출물은 UVB 조사로 발생된 유해산소 활성을 감소시켜주며, 급성반응인 일광화상세포, 염증반응을 감소시킬 수 있으며 피부염증을 예방하는 광보호제로서의 사용도 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

The effects of red ginseng (RG) on the changes of ultraviolet (UV) light B radiation-induced apoptotic sun-burn cell (SBC) and epidermal ATPase-positive dendritic cell (DC) in SKH 1-hr or ICR mouse were investigated. The mice were treated with UVB ($200mJ/cm^2$) and were sacrificed 24 hours later. RG (50 mg/kg of body weight) or vehicle (saline) was given i.p. at 36 and 12 hours before irradiation, and 30 minutes after irradiation. RG cream (0.2%) or cream base (vehicle) was also topically treated at 24 hours and 15 minutes before irradiation, and immediately after irradiation. The skin of SKH 1-hr mouse prepared from the back of untreated mice exhibited about 0.3 SBC/cm length of epidermis, and 24 hours after UV irradiation, the applied areas show an increased number of SBCs. But the frequency of UVB-induced SBC formation was significantly reduced by intraperitoneal injection of RG extract. The numbers of DC in normal ICR mouse were $628.00{\pm}51.56\;or\;663.20{\pm}62.58\;per\;mm^2$ of ear epidermis. By 1 day after UVB treatment, the number of ATPase-positive $cells/mm^2$ were decreased by 39.0% or 27.1% in i.p. or topical application group with vehicle. The frequency of UVB ($200mJ/cm^2$)-induced DC decrease was reduced by treatment of RG as 31.3% in i.p. group and 22.4% in topical application group compared with the irradiation control group. The results presented herein that RG administration could reduce the extent of skill damages produced by UVB.

자외선 B는 반응성 산소종(reactive oxygen species, ROS)의 발생을 유도하고 세포내 항산화 물질의 저장을 방해한다. 후코이단은 L-fucose와 황 에스터기를 포함하는 다당류로서 갈조류의 주요 성분으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 인간 피부 섬유아세포인 HS68세포에 자외선을 조사하여 산화 스트레스를 유도한 후 후코이단의 보호효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 후코이단의 전처치로 malondialdehyde (MDA)의 양이 용량-의존적으로 감소하였고, 세포내 glutathiopne도 후코이단 $100\;{\mu}g/ml$을 투여하였을 때 후코이단을 투여하지 않고 자외선만 조사한 군에 비하여 21.5% 감소하였다. 후코이단을 10, $100\;{\mu}g/ml$의 용량으로 투여하였을 경우 자외선 B에 의한 ROS 생성이 자외선만 조사하였을 때 보다 각각 40.1%와 68.4%로 유의하게 감소하였다. 세포노화와 관련된 $\beta$-galactosidase의 양성 염색률은 후코이단을 10, $100\;{\mu}g/ml$ 투여하였을 경우 자외선만 조사하였을 때보다 각각 23.1%, 16.4% 감소하였다. 이러한 결과로 미루어 후코이단은 자외선에 의한 산화 스트레스에 대하여 광보호 효과가 있는 것으로 생각된다.

UV exposure induces matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and extracellular matrix-degrading enzymes expression. We studied the protective effect of Rubus occidentalis seed against UVB-generated skin photoaging using human fibroblast cells (CCD-986sk). We used an ELISA kit to measure the supernatents of procollagen type I and MMP-1 in CCD-986sk cells after they were exposed to UVB irradiation. The CCD-986sk cells that were used with RC-E/E after the UVB irradiation caused higher levels of type I procollagen and lesser levels of MMP-1 compared with the control group. Furthermore, the RC-E/E treated group showed lesser MMP-1 levels and higher procollagen type I levels than the untreated counterpart. Therefore, it can be concluded that Rubus occidentalis seed can prevent from skin photoaging.

This research investigated the protective effect on hair for 3 commercial hair oil products containing UV filters upon UVA and UVB irradiation. Hair tresses each weighing 2 g were prepared from black virgin hair. Hair tresses treated with 0.5 g of hair oil were irradiated by UVA (365 nm) and UVB (302 nm) lamp for up to 600 hours. Color of hair was measured using a spectrocolorimeter, tensile strength and elongation of hair were measured using a biological tensile tester, surface morphology was examined using a scanning electron microscope. Experimental results were analyzed using SPSS statistical software. Hair color and tensile strength were both affected by UVA and UVB irradiation. Significant differences in the color and tensile strength were observed between untreated hair and hair treated with hair oils. Good UV protective effect observed in Oil 2 and Oil 3 was attributable to the type and the combination of UV filters contained in the products.

Ultraviolet(UV) radiation causes a variety of biological effects on the skin, including inflammation, pigmentation, photoaging and cancer. Free radicals are involved in inflammatory skin reactions induced by UVB radiation. In this study, we investigated the effects of antioxidants(Tea, Korean red ginseng, Ginkgo biloba extract) on UVB-induced skin damage. Tea, KRG and EGb 761 were topically treated to dorsal skin of ICR mouse. The mice were also treated soon after IMED ($1.4KJ/m^{2}$) of UVB irradiation. Skin pigmentation of irradiated mouse was observed by a chromameter after 2 weeks. Topical application of Tea, KRG and EGb 761 for 2 weeks decreased skin pigmentation compared to DVB control group(p<.05). Tea, KRG and EGb 761 also reduced UVB-induced infiltration of inflammatory cells. These results showed that Tea, KRG and EGb 761 as a topical application may have preventive effect against UVB-induced skin damage.

Ultraviolet B (UVB) is known to induce apoptosis in human melanocytes. Here we show the cytoprotective effect of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) against UVB-induced apoptosis. We also show that UVB-induced apoptosis of melanocytes is mediated by caspase-3 activation and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) cleavage, and that S1P prevents apoptosis by inhibiting this apoptotic pathway. We further investigated three major subfamilies of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases and the Akt pathway after UVB irradiation. (omitted)

Curcumin is a natural phytochemical present in turmeric, the ground powder of the rhizomes of Curcuma longa. Curcumin has been described as having antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic properties. However, it is still largely unknown whether curcumin inhibits the UVB-induced inflammatory reaction in HaCaT keratinocyte cell lines. In this study, to confirm the photoprotection properties of curcumin, HaCaT keratinocyte cells were irradiated by UVB, and then treated with curcumin. UVB irradiation induced the increased expressions of IL-$1{\beta}$, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-6, IL-8, and COX-2 in HaCaT cells. These increased expressions of cytokines (IL-$1{\beta}$, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-6, IL-8, and COX-2) were down-regulated by curcumin treatment in UVB-irradiated HaCaT cells. In addition skin of hairless mice were damaged by UVB irradiation, which were evidenced by atrophy of epidermis and decrease of collagen in dermis. However, these damages were protected partially by co-treatment of curcumin. Taken together, this data indicate that curcumin may be a promising photoprotection agent, when used in massage pack or sunscreen product, to reduce cell death in UV-damaged skin.

Protective effect of skin by antioxidative dietary buchu (Chinese chives, Allium tuberosum Router), was evaluated in ICR mice fed diets containing 2% or 5% buchu for 12 months. Lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation in skin, with or without ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation, activities of antioxidative enzymes, total glutathione concentrations, and non-soluble collagen contents were measured. Dietary buchu decreased significantly in TBARS and protein carbonyl levels in skin compared to the control group, and were lower in those fed 5% than 2% buchu diet group. ICR mice exhibited an age-dependent decrease in antioxidative enzyme activities and total glutathione concentrations on the control diet, but in the groups fed buchu diet the enzyme activities and glu-tathione concentrations remained at youthful levels for most of the study. SOD, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase activities as well as total glutathione concentrations increased with time in the skins of the mice fed buchu diets. Lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation provoked by UVB irradiation on ICR mice skin homogenates were also significantly inhibited by dietary buchu. The buchu diets also decreased the formation of non-soluble collagen in mice skin, compared to the control group. These results suggest that antioxidative components and sulfur-compounds in buchu may confer protective effect against oxidative stress resulting from aging and exposure to ultraviolet irradiation.

본 연구는 국내에서 주로 소비되는 곡류를 사용하여 UVB를 조사한 인체 피부 섬유아세포에서 항산화 효능과 MMP-1 및 수용성 콜라겐의 변화를 측정하여 광노화 억제 효능을 평가하였다. 또한 곡류 추출물의 항산화 활성 및 항산화 성분을 측정하고, 항산화력과 항산화 성분과의 상관성을 비교 분석하였다. 7종의 곡류 추출물(백미, 현미, 보리, 율무, 귀리, 수수, 흑미)은 $30mJ/cm^2$ UVB에 노출된 인체 피부 섬유아세포에서 광노화에 대해 세포 보호효과가 있는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 곡류 추출물의 처리는 UVB 조사에 따른 MMP-1의 생성을 감소시키고, 수용성 콜라겐의 분해를 저해하였으며, ROS의 생성도 억제하였다. 7종의 곡류 메탄올 추출물에 대한 총 폴리페놀 함량을 분석한 결과, 흑미와 수수가 다른 곡류에 비해 높은 항산화 성분을 함유하고 있었으며, DPPH 및 ABTS 라디칼 소거능도 높은 활성을 나타냈다. 곡류 추출물의 항산화 성분과 항산화 활성과의 상관분석 결과, 폴리페놀 함량이 높을수록 DPPH 라디칼 소거능($R^2=0.9936$), ABTS 라디칼 소거능($R^2=0.9456$)이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 곡류 추출물은 항산화 성분을 다량 함유하고 높은 항산화 활성을 지녔으며, UVB 조사에 의한 ROS로부터 보호하여 MMP-1의 생성을 감소시키고, 수용성 콜라겐의 분해를 억제시켜 광노화 보효호과를 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구 결과, 곡류 추출믈의 항산화 및 광노화 보호효능 입증으로 곡류 추출물을 항주름 기능성 소재에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
