Article Synopsis
- - Squalene hydroperoxide (SQ-OOH), a product of squalene that accumulates on sun-exposed skin, has been linked to inflammatory responses, but its actions are not well-studied.
- - Research showed that SQ-OOH increased inflammatory gene expression (like interleukins and COX-2) in immortalized human keratinocytes (HaCaT), alongside enhanced reactive oxygen species and prostaglandin E2 production.
- - Gamma-tocotrienol (gamma-T3), a form of vitamin E, was found to reduce the inflammatory effects of SQ-OOH, suggesting its potential as a preventive measure for skin inflammation.
