Abstrakt: Skin homeostasis is predominantly compromised by exposure to UV-B irradiation, leading to several physiopathological processes at cellular and tissue levels that deteriorate skin function and integrity. The current study investigated the photo-protective role of seabuckthorn fruit pulp (SBT) extract against UV-B-induced damage in primary human skin fibroblasts (HDFs) and Balb/C mice skin. We subjected HDFs and Balb/C mice to UV-B irradiation and measured multiple cellular damage indicators. We found that UV-B-irradiated HDFs treated with SBT had a considerably greater survival rate than cells exposed to UV-B radiation alone. The UV-B irradiation–induced ROS generation led to the degradation of the extracellular matrix, inflammation, DNA damage, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and apoptosis. SBT treatment significantly reduced these manifestations. Topical application of SBT alleviated UV-B-induced epidermal thickening, leukocyte infiltration, and degradation of extracellular matrix in Balb/c mice skin. Based on our results, we conclude that SBT has the potential to be developed as a therapeutic/cosmetic remedy for the prevention of skin photo-damage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
