Abstract
Given the adverse impact of ultraviolet irradiation on human skin, as well as currently limited interventions, the discovery of new molecules with anti-photodamage potency remains critical. In this research, we obtained a new bioactive peptide (named OS-LL11, amino acid sequence 'LLPPWLCPRNK') from Odorrana schmackeri. Results showed that OS-LL11 could directly scavenge free radicals and sustain the viability of mouse keratinocytes challenged by ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation or hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) by decreasing the levels of lipid peroxidation, malondialdehyde, and reactive oxygen species while increasing the level of catalase, Keap-1, HO-1, GCLM, and NQO1. Interestingly, topical application of OS-LL11 protected mouse skin against UVB irradiation damage by up-regulating the levels of superoxide dismutase, glutathione, and nitric oxide, but down-regulating the levels of H2O2, IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, 8-OHdG, Bcl-2, and Bax, as well as the number of apoptotic bodies. Our research demonstrated the anti-photodamage activity of a novel amphibian-derived peptide and the potential underlying mechanisms related to its free radical scavenging ability and antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic activities. This study provides a new molecule for the development of anti-skin photodamage drugs or cosmetics and highlights the prospects of amphibian-derived peptides in photodamaged skin intervention.
