Abstrakt: Background and Purpose: Long-term ultraviolet (UV) exposure can cause inflammation, pigmentation and photoaging. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA/tretinoin) is a commonly used retinoic acid receptor (RAR) agonist in the clinical treatment of UV-induced skin problems. However, the use of such drugs is often accompanied by systemic adverse reactions caused by nonspecific activation of RARs. Therefore, this study was designed to screen for a novel RAR-γ-selective agonist with high safety.
Experimental Approach: Molecular docking, dynamic simulation and Biacore were used to screen and identify novel RAR-γ-selective agonists. RT-PCR, ELISA, western blotting, immunofluorescence staining, flow cytometry and proteomic analysis were used to detect the effects of these novel RAR-γ selective agonists on UVA-induced inflammation and photoaging cell models. UVA-induced mouse models were used to evaluate the effects of tectorigenin on skin repair, ageing and inflammation.
Key Results: Tectorigenin is a novel RAR-γ-selective agonist, which inhibits UV-induced oxidative damage, inflammatory factor release and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) production. Tectorigenin can also reverse the UVA-induced loss of collagen. The results of the signalling pathway research showed that tectorigenin mainly affects the MAPK/JNK/AP-1 pathway. In animal experiments, tectorigenin showed better anti-inflammatory and anti-photoaging effects, and caused less skin irritation than ATRA. Nano-particle loaded tectorigenin significantly improved the utilization of tectorigenin.
Conclusions and Implications: Tectorignen is a non-retinol RAR-γ-selective agonist that can inhibit UV-induced skin damage and could be developed as a safe pharmaceutical component for the prevention of photoaging and skin inflammation.
