The influence of UVA and UVB irradiation of the skin for 1, 2 and 4 weeks on the activities of the hepatic and cutaneous P450 isoenzymes was investigated in female Wistar rats before and after systemic administration of hexachlorobenzene (HCB), a well-known porphyrogenic agent, which additionally induces P450 1A1 and P450 1A2 isoenzymes. UVA and UVB irradiation of the skin of controls and HCB-treated animals did not influence porphyrin metabolism. In the nonporphyric rats hepatic EROD (P450 1A1) activity was induced by UVB, but the activity of ADM (P450 2B) and EMDM (P450 3A) was either minimally or not affected. In the HCB-treated (porphyric) rats UVA and UVB irradiation resulted in a significant depression of HCB-induced EROD in the liver and in the skin. In both the nonporphyric and the porphyric rats UVA and UVB irradiation had no effect on hepatic ADM activity. In the liver of the nonporphyric animals EMDM activity remained unchanged after UVA and UVB irradiation, whereas in the HCB-treated animals the activity of this enzyme was increased. Finally, after UVA and UVB irradiation cutaneous EMDM activity was increased in the controls, whereas the HCB-induced increase of this enzyme in porphyric animals was decreased. In addition long-term (28 days) UVB irradiation decreased hepatic GSH content significantly in normal and porphyric rats. These experimental findings cannot be directly extrapolated to humans; however, they suggest that exposure of human skin to UV radiation may result in alterations in the activity of cutaneous hepatic and other extracutaneous P450 isoenzymes.

Objective: MiRNAs and lncRNAs are important regulators in the process of skin photoaging. In this study, we investigated the expression changes and interactions between miR4298 and lncKRTAP5-6-3 in chronically UVB-damaged human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT) cells and explored miR4298-MAPK/ERK signaling pathway-Cathepsin D-lncKRTAP5-6-3 mechanisms in photoaging cells.
Methods: HaCaT cells were irradiated with 12 mJ/cm UVB once a day for 7 days.

UVB irradiation induces diverse modalities of regulatory cell death in keratinocytes. Recently, the pattern of coexistence of pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis has been termed PANoptosis; however, whether PANoptosis occurs in keratinocytes in UVB-induced skin injury remains unclear. We observed that the key molecules of GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis, apoptosis, and necroptosis, which are N-terminal GSDMD, cleaved caspase-3/PARP, and phosphorylated MLKL, respectively, were elevated in keratinocytes of UVB-challenged mice and human skin tissue.

The study aims to investigate an improved version of lipid nanocarriers (NLCs) (formulated with functional coconut butter and marula oil) by designing hyaluronic acid (HA) decorated NLC co-loaded with dual UVA (butyl methoxy dibenzoyl methane, BMDBM), UVB absorbers (ethyl-hexyl-salicylate, EHS) and a Raspberry rich polyphenols fraction (RPRF) for development of more natural NLC-based to-pical formulations. : Quality and quantitative attributes of classic- and HA-NLC have been assigned based on particle size, electrokinetic potential, encapsulation efficiency, spectroscopic characteristics, and high-resolution mass spectrometry. To establish the performance profile of antioxidant activity, release of active substances, sun blocking action, and photostability, in vitro studies were conducted.

TiO/ZnO/Chitosan coated cotton fabric as a self-cleaning, which has been synthesized by various concentrations of TiO: 0.5 g, 1 g, and 2 g through the sol-gel method at pH 9. The self-cleaning test was conducted on TiO/ZnO/Chitosan-coated cotton fabric samples by irradiating for 15 h using UVA-UVB lamps with clothing stain dye.

Introduction: Inflammasomes NLRP1 (NLR family pyrin domain containing 1) and NLRP3 are pivotal regulators of the innate immune response, activated by a spectrum of endogenous and exogenous stressors, including ultraviolet radiation (UVR). The precise molecular mechanisms underlying the activation of these inflammasomes remain unclear. Furthermore, the involvement of interleukin-33 (IL-33) in UVR-induced skin carcinogenesis is not well defined.
