Once-daily application of tretinoin to photodamaged facial skin for 0-12 months results in substantial clinical and histologic improvement. As regards appearance, fine wrinkles become effaced, dyspigmentations fade, surface becomes smooth and develops a 'rosy glow'. Histologically, atrophy and dysplasia of the epidermis are completely corrected. New collagen is laid down subepidermally along with the development of new small vessels (angiogenesis). Mesenchymal dermal cells become more numerous and larger. The sum of changes is toward more youthful skin.

Cutaneous photoaging, induced by chronic exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, typically manifests as alterations in both the physical appearance and functional properties of the skin and may predispose individuals to cancer development. Recent studies have demonstrated the reparative potential of exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells in addressing skin damage, while specific reports highlight their efficacy in ameliorating skin photoaging. However, the precise role of exosomes derived from human hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells (HFMSC-Exos) in the context of cutaneous photoaging remains largely unexplored.

Background And Aim: A critical causative factor of oxidative stress and inflammation leading to several skin complications is ultraviolet-B (UVB) irradiation. (LR), or tiger milk mushroom, is native to Southeast Asia. Cold water extract of an LR cultivar, TM02® (xLr®) is a promising anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory source.

Background/objectives: UV radiation is a primary cause of skin damage and photoaging. β-carotene, a potent antioxidant, aids in mitigating UV-induced oxidative stress and enhancing skin photoprotection. This research aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a nutraceutical product designed to prevent photoaging.

In aqueous environments, microplastics (MPs) undergo photoaging, releasing dissolved organic matter (DOM). Disinfection byproducts (DBPs) formation from natural organic matter (NOM) phototransformation has been reported. However, the impact of NOM on the photoaging of MPs (especially nitrogen-containing MPs) and subsequent nitrogenous DBPs (N-DBPs) formation remains unknown.

Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is a major factor contributing to skin photoaging, including the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), collagen breakdown, and overall skin damage. Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-1) is a polypeptide hormone that regulates dermal survival and collagen synthesis. Echinacoside (Ech), a natural phenylethanoid glycoside, is the most abundant active compound in Cistanches.
