Salvianolic Acid B Exerts Antiphotoaging Effect on Ultraviolet B-Irradiated Human Keratinocytes by Alleviating Oxidative Stress via SIRT1 Protein*
摘要
Abstract
Objective:
2
To explore the anti-photoaging properties of salvianolic acid B (Sal B).
Methods:
2
The optimal photoaging model of human immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaT cells) were constructed by expose to ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation. The cells were divided into control
model and different concentrations of Sal B groups. Cell viability was measured via cell counting kit-8. Subsequently
the levels of oxidative stress
including reactive oxygen species (ROS)
hydroxyproline (Hyp)
catalase (CAT)
and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) were detected using the relevant kits. Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) protein level was detected using Western blot. The binding pattern of Sal B and SIRT1 was determined via molecular docking.
Results:
2
Sal B significantly increased the viability of UVB-irradiated HaCaT cells (
P
<
0.05 or
P
<
0.01). Sal
B effectively scavenged the accumulation of ROS induced by UVB (
P
<
0.05 or
P
<
0.01). In addition
Sal B modulated oxidative stress by increasing the intracellular concentrations of Hyp and CAT and the activity of GSH-Px (
P
<
0.05 or
P
<
0.01). The Western blot results revealed a substantial increase in SIRT1 protein levels following Sal B administration (
P
<
0.05). Moreover
Sal B exhibited good binding affinity toward SIRT1
with a docking energy of –7.5 kCal/mol.
Conclusion:
2
Sal B could improve the repair of photodamaged cells by alleviating cellular oxidative stress and regulating the expression of SIRT1 protein.
