AN ANIMAL MODEL OF SOLAR‐AGED SKIN: HISTOLOGICAL, PHYSICAL, and VISIBLE CHANGES IN UV‐IRRADIATED HAIRLESS MOUSE SKIN*

Abstract: Albino hairless mice (Skh:HR-1) exposed to sub-erythemal doses of UVB or UVA radiation display physical, visible, and histological alterations. Skin surface replicas, transepidermal water loss, and skin fold thickness were found to change with irradiation. Visibly, the skin wrinkled with UVB and sagged with UVA exposure. These changes were graded on 3-point scales. Histological alterations included tissue thickening, loss of elastic fibers, elastosis, loss of collagen, and increases in mucosubstances. The UVB … Show more

“…UV photochemically generated oxidative stressors such as singlet oxygen damage matrix integrity; elastosis-inducing damage to the underlying connective tissue occurs, with interstitial spaces appearing in the matrix caused by loss of collagen volume and fibre binding; the viscosity and quality of the matrix ground substance glycosaminoglycans is reduced; and an inflammatory infiltrate can be identified (1).…”

“…Accumulation of oxidized proteins is a hallmark of cellular ageing and is believed to be one of the main contributors to the aged phenotype (1)(2)(3). This process is dependent on an increased occurrence of oxidative damage to proteins but also on a decreased elimination of oxidatively modified protein (4,5).…”

“…On the other hand, topical sphingolipids are expected to contribute directly to skin function. Our study was conducted to examine the effects of topical application of maize GluCer on wrinkle formation and epidermal thickness in long-term UVA-irradiated hairless mice 10 . Our results indicate that topical GluCer can prevent skin photoaging caused by UVA exposure in mice.…”
