Anti‐wrinkling effects of the mixture of vitamin C, vitamin E, pycnogenol and evening primrose oil, and molecular mechanisms on hairless mouse skin caused by chronic ultraviolet B irradiation

Abstract: Oral administration of the antioxidant mixture significantly inhibited wrinkle formation caused by chronic UVB irradiation through significant inhibition of UVB-induced MMP activity accompanied by enhancement of collagen synthesis.

“…* Pycnogenol, an extract of French maritime pine (Pinuspinaster Ait), prevents UV induced erythema as well as long-term effects, such as immune-suppression and tumour formation [17,18]. It also possesses regenerative skin properties, and prevents UVBinduced photo-aging [19,20]. * Fernblock, an extract obtained from the fern Polypodium leucotomos, inhibits UVB and PUVA therapy-induced erythema in vivo [21].…”

“…Antioxidants are used in the cosmetic industry to prevent the formation of new wrinkles and reduce skin ageing caused by UV radiation. These antioxidants, such as vitamin C, vitamin E and pycnogenol, have been shown to have a synergistic effect when combined for UV protection [33]. Photostabilizers have also been shown to exhibit antioxidant properties.…”

“…For this purpose, skin samples from sham-irradiated or chronically UV-exposed hairless mice, which at the time of biopsy showed significant signs of photoaging including increased wrinkle formation, reduced numbers of collagen fibers and increased expression of matrix metalloproteinase-13, 39 were analyzed for LOX mRNA expression. In all animals, LOX mRNA expression was significantly increased as compared with sham-irradiated control animals ( Figure 8A).…”
