Silk sericin exhibited bioactivities to skin and inhibited UV-induced phototoxicity and melanogenesis in skin cells; however, the mechanism related to sericin against UV-induced melanogenesis has not been investigated. This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of Thai silk sericins against UVA-induced phototoxicity and melanogenesis and their related mechanisms. Thai silk sericins exhibited cytoprotective effects against UV-induced toxicity in human primary melanocytes by attenuation of cytotoxicity, intracellular ROS generation, and mitochondrial potential impairment. Pre- and post-treatment with sericin significantly inhibited melanin synthesis and tyrosinase activity against UVA exposure. In addition, sericin S2 could reduce the basal melanin content in zebrafish embryos. The proteomic analysis demonstrated that Thai silk sericins altered the protein expression in melanocytes especially proteins related to stress, inflammatory, cytokine stimulation, cell proliferation, and cell survival processes that contribute to cytoprotective effect and inhibitory effect on melanogenesis of sericin. Moreover, we demonstrated the novel mechanism of Thai silk sericins in inhibiting UVA-induced melanogenesis via increasing BMP4 expression in MAPK/ERK signaling pathway. These evidences support the potential use of Thai silk sericins in prevention of hyperpigmentation in skin disorders especially after UVA exposure.Copyright © 2021.
