Abstract:Excessive amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by ultraviolet (UV) radiation cause skin aging via basement membrane/extracellular matrix degradation resulting from the action of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Recently, phloroglucinol (1,3,5-trihydroxybenzene) was demonstrated to attenuate the cell damage induced by oxidative stress by quenching ROS and stimulating antioxidant systems. In the current study, the effect of phloroglucinol on UVB-induced photoaging was investigated in human HaCaT keratinocytes. Phloroglucinol significantly inhibited the UVB-induced (1) upregulation of MMP-1 mRNA, protein and activity; (2) augmentation of intracellular Ca(2+) levels; (3) phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs); (4) expression of c-Fos and phospho c-Jun; and (5) enhancement of activator protein-1 (AP-1) binding to the MMP-1 promoter. In addition, the knockdown of MAPKs significantly inhibited UVB-induced MMP-1 expression. The results of this study suggest that phloroglucinol may be useful as a photoprotective compound for the skin.
