[PMID: 36840187 PMCID: PMC9966275 DOI: 10.3390/plants12040840] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Revised: 02/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Photoaging is the premature aging of the skin caused by repeated exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays. The harmful effects of UV rays-from the sun or from artificial sources-alter normal skin structures and cause visible damage, especially in the most exposed areas. Fighting premature aging is one of the most important challenges of the medical landscape. Additionally, consumers are looking for care products that offer multiple benefits with reduced environmental and economic impact. The growing requests for bioactive compounds from aromatic plants for pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications have to find new sustainable methods to increase the effectiveness of new active formulations derived from eco-compatible technologies. The principle of sustainable practices and the circular economy favor the use of bioactive components derived from recycled biomass. The guidelines of the European Commission support the reuse of various types of organic biomass and organic waste, thus transforming waste management problems into economic opportunities. This review aims to elucidate the main mechanisms of photoaging and how these can be managed using natural renewable sources and specific bioactive derivatives, such as humic extracts from recycled organic biomass, as potential new actors in modern medicine.

Abstract
Wound healing is an important process in the human body to protect against external threats. A dysregulation at any stage of the wound healing process may result in the development of various intractable ulcers or excessive scar formation. Numerous factors such as growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines are involved in this process and play vital roles in tissue repair. Moreover, recent studies have demonstrated that lipid mediators derived from membrane fatty acids are also involved in the process of wound healing. Among these lipid mediators, we focus on eicosanoids such as prostaglandins, thromboxane, leukotrienes, and specialized pro-resolving mediators, which are produced during wound healing processes and play versatile roles in the process. This review article highlights the roles of eicosanoids on skin wound healing, especially focusing on the biosynthetic pathways and biological functions, i.e., inflammation, proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, remodeling, and scarring.

Abstract
Macrophages are a primary immune cell involved in inflammation, and their cell plasticity allows for transition from an inflammatory to a reparative phenotype and is critical for normal tissue repair following injury. Evidence suggests that epigenetic alterations play a critical role in establishing macrophage phenotype and function during normal and pathologic wound repair. Here, we find in human and murine wound macrophages that cyclooxygenase 2/prostaglandin E2 (COX-2/PGE2) is elevated in diabetes and regulates downstream macrophage-mediated inflammation and host defense. Using single-cell RNA sequencing of human wound tissue, we identify increased NF-κB-mediated inflammation in diabetic wounds and show increased COX-2/PGE2 in diabetic macrophages. Further, we identify that COX-2/PGE2 production in wound macrophages requires epigenetic regulation of 2 key enzymes in the cytosolic phospholipase A2/COX-2/PGE2 (cPLA2/COX-2/PGE2) pathway. We demonstrate that TGF-β-induced miRNA29b increases COX-2/PGE2 production via inhibition of DNA methyltransferase 3b-mediated hypermethylation of the Cox-2 promoter. Further, we find mixed-lineage leukemia 1 (MLL1) upregulates cPLA2 expression and drives COX-2/PGE2. Inhibition of the COX-2/PGE2 pathway genetically (Cox2fl/fl Lyz2Cre+) or with a macrophage-specific nanotherapy targeting COX-2 in tissue macrophages reverses the inflammatory macrophage phenotype and improves diabetic tissue repair. Our results indicate the epigenetically regulated PGE2 pathway controls wound macrophage function, and cell-targeted manipulation of this pathway is feasible to improve diabetic wound repair.

Abstract
Significance: Optimal skin wound healing is crucial for maintaining tissue homeostasis, particularly in response to an injury. The skin immune system is under regulation of mediators such as bioactive lipids and cytokines that can initiate an immune response with controlled inflammation, followed by efficient resolution. However, nutritional deficiency impacts wound healing by hindering fibroblast proliferation, collagen synthesis, and epithelialization, among other crucial functions. In this way, the correct nutritional support of bioactive lipids and of other essential nutrients plays an important role in the outcome of the wound healing process. Recent Advances and Critical Issues: Several studies have revealed the potential role of lipids as a treatment for the healing of skin wounds. Unsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid, α-linolenic acid, oleic acid, and most of their bioactive products have shown an effective role as a topical treatment of chronic skin wounds. Their effect, when the treatment starts at day 0, has been observed mainly in the inflammatory phase of the wound healing process. Moreover, some of them were associated with different dressings and were tested for clinical purposes, including pluronic gel, nanocapsules, collagen films and matrices, and polymeric bandages. Therefore, future research is still needed to evaluate these dressing technologies in association with different bioactive fatty acids in a wound healing context. Future Directions: This review summarizes the main results of the available clinical trials and basic research studies and provides evidence-based conclusions. Together, current data encourage the use of bioactive fatty acids for an optimal wound healing resolution.

Abstract
Human skin has a distinct profile of fatty acids and related bioactive lipid mediators that regulate many aspects of epidermal and dermal homeostasis, including immune and inflammatory reactions. Sebum lipids act as effective antimicrobial agents, shape immune cell communications and contribute to the epidermal lipidome. The essential fatty acid linoleic acid is crucial for the structure of the epidermal barrier, while polyunsaturated fatty acids act as precursors to eicosanoids, octadecanoids and docosanoids through cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase and cytochrome P450 monooxygenase-mediated reactions, and endocannabinoids and N-acyl ethanolamines. Cross-communication between these families of bioactive lipids suggests that their cutaneous activities should be considered as part of a wider metabolic network that can be targeted to maintain skin health, control inflammation and improve skin pathologies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Lasers have been successfully used for decades to remove dark hair. However, laser removal of nonpigmented hair is challenging due to the lack of chromophores. The aim of this study was to use photodynamic therapy (PDT) to remove nonpigmented hair. STUDY DESIGN/MATERIAL AND METHODS We compared the efficacy of permanent hair reduction in white BALB/c and black C57BL/6 mice treated with PDT or an 800-nm diode laser. We collected skin biopsy specimens and investigated post-PDT histologic changes and molecular changes. RESULTS We observed keratin 15 staining in the bulge area and alkaline phosphatase staining in the dermal papilla following PDT. We observed a temporary, catagen-like transformation in nonpigmented hair follicles after PDT. We observed apoptotic cells in the hair matrix after PDT. Irradiation with an 800-nm diode laser did not achieve nonpigmented hair removal. Multiple PDT sessions achieved permanent reduction of nonpigmented hair. Interestingly, removal of black hair using PDT was less efficient. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that PDT can damage the nonpigmented hair matrix, but not stem cells or dermal papillae. Repeated PDT may impair the hair-regeneration capacity via a bystander effect on bulge stem cells or dermal papillae. In this study, we found it was possible to remove nonpigmented hair using PDT.

Abstract
We described a rapid and precise method for simultaneous quantification of eleven fatty acids in human serum cholesteryl esters (CEFAs) by liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). After extraction of serum lipids with isopropanol, CEFAs were separated on reversed phase liquid chromatography and detected by mass spectrometry in positive ion mode with multiple reaction monitor. Individual CEFA was quantified by peak area normalization method and expressed as molar percent of total CEFAs. The run time was less than 5 min and detection limits were from 0.31 to 14.50 × 10(-5)mmol/L. Recoveries of the CEFAs ranged from 91.85% to 104.83% with a mean of 99.12%. The intra and total CVs for the measurement of CEFAs were 0.87-7.70% and 1.02-7.65%, respectively. This LC-MS/MS method required no internal standards, eliminated natural isotope interferences, and provided reproducible and reliable results for 11 major CEFAs in human serum. This method can be used in monitoring and evaluating dietary fatty acid intake. Additional studies are needed to evaluate the associations between serum CEFAs and cardiovascular disease risk factors.

Abstract
Eicosanoids play an integral part in homeostatic mechanisms related to skin health and structural integrity. They also mediate inflammatory events developed in response to environmental factors, such as exposure to ultraviolet radiation, and inflammatory and allergic disorders, including psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. This review article discusses biochemical aspects related to cutaneous eicosanoid metabolism, the contribution of these potent autacoids to skin inflammation and related conditions, and considers the importance of nutritional supplementation with bioactives such as omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids and plant-derived antioxidants as means of addressing skin health issues.

Abstract
Platelets contribute to the development of metastasis, the most common cause of mortality in cancer patients, but the precise role that anti-platelet drugs play in cancer treatment is not defined. Metastatic tumor cells can produce platelet alphaIIb beta3 activators, such as ADP and thromboxane A(2) (TXA(2)). Inhibitors of platelet beta3 integrins decrease bone metastases in mice but are associated with significant bleeding. We examined the role of a novel soluble apyrase/ADPase, APT102, and an inhibitor of TXA(2) synthesis, acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin or ASA), in mouse models of experimental bone metastases. We found that treatment with ASA and APT102 in combination (ASA + APT102), but not either drug alone, significantly decreased breast cancer and melanoma bone metastases in mice with fewer bleeding complications than observed with alphaIIb beta3 inhibition. ASA + APT102 diminished tumor cell induced platelet aggregation but did not directly alter tumor cell viability. Notably, APT102 + ASA treatment did not affect initial tumor cell distribution and similar results were observed in beta3-/- mice. These results show that treatment with ASA + APT102 decreases bone metastases without significant bleeding complications. Anti-platelet drugs such as ASA + APT102 could be valuable experimental tools for studying the role of platelet activation in metastasis as well as a therapeutic option for the prevention of bone metastases.

Abstract
The role of prostaglandins (PGs) on mechanical scratching-induced cutaneous barrier disruption in mice was investigated by comparing the observed effects of arachidonic acid (AA) application. Scratching of the mouse skin with a stainless-steel wire brush (mechanical scratching) was associated with significant, scratch-count-dependent elevation of the transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and skin PG levels (especially PGD(2) and PGE(2)). Histological evidence of inflammation (crusta, acanthosis and neutrophilic infiltration) in the skin also became evident 24 h after mechanical scratching. On the other hand, while topical application of 0.1% AA to the mouse skin also increased the skin PG levels, but did not produce any increase of TEWL or histological evidence of inflammation in the skin. Topical application of cyclooxygenase inhibitors (indomethacin, piroxicam, aspirin, diclofenac and ketoprofen) decreased the spontaneous recovery rates from cutaneous barrier disruption. These results suggest that the elevation of cutaneous PG production induced by mechanical scratching is involved in the repair of the skin damage caused by the scratching.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by severe pruritus, and cutaneous barrier disruption by scratching contributes to further aggravation of the condition. We have previously shown that indomethacin delayed recovery from the effects of cutaneous barrier disruption caused by mechanical scratching in mice. OBJECTIVES This study was designed to assess the role of cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 inhibitors on recovery from the effects of cutaneous barrier disruption induced by mechanical scratching in mice. METHODS We examined the effects of SC-560 (a COX-1-selective inhibitor) or NS-398 (a COX-2-selective inhibitor) on recovery from the effects of cutaneous barrier disruption in mice induced by a wire brush, in terms of the skin prostaglandin (PG) levels. RESULTS While SC-560 significantly delayed recovery from the effects of cutaneous barrier disruption, NS-398 had no such effect. SC-560 was significantly more effective than NS-398 in reducing skin PG levels at 6 and 24 h after cutaneous barrier disruption. SC-560 strongly inhibited biosynthesis of cutaneous PGD(2) to a greater extent than that of other PGs. CONCLUSIONS COX-1-coupled PGD(2) biosynthesis may be an important factor in the recovery of cutaneous barrier disruption.

Abstract
NC/Nga mice are known to develop scratching dermatitis akin to atopic dermatitis, under conventional (Conv), but not under the specific-pathogen-free (SPF) condition. In this study, we examined the effects of mechanical-scratching on the spontaneous scratching counts (sign of itching), in relation to the cutaneous prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) levels in NC/Nga or BALB/c mice. Mechanical-scratching increased the cutaneous barrier damage and PGD2 levels in both strain mice under the SPF condition. By 4 weeks of cohabitation with the skin-lesioned NC/Nga mice, both the increase in the spontaneous scratching and development of dermatitis score were higher in the Conv-NC/Nga than in the Conv-BALB/c mice. At this time-point, the cutaneous PGD2 level induced by mechanical-scratching was significantly lower in the Conv-NC/Nga when compared with that in the SPF-NC/Nga mice, and that in the Conv-BALB/c was almost equal to that in the SPF-BALB/c mice. With mechanical scratches, the cohabitation-induced scratching was suppressed in the Conv-BALB/c, but not in the Conv-NC/Nga mice. These results suggest that the scratch-induced cutaneous PGD2 inhibits scratching and the subsequent development of dermatitis in BALB/c, while the impaired scratch-induced cutaneous PGD2 production in the NC/Nga mice resulted in no suppression of scratching, and aggravated the dermatitis.

Abstract
TS-022 is a prostanoid DP(1) receptor agonist, originally developed as a novel anti-pruritic drug for atopic dermatitis. The drug has been shown to suppress scratching and improve the skin inflammation in the NC/Nga (NC) mouse, a model of atopic dermatitis. Corticosteroids are commonly used as effective agents for the treatment of atopic dermatitis. We examined the anti-pruritic efficacy of TS-022 in NC mice cohabited with skin-lesioned NC mice, which showed spontaneous scratching without skin lesions in the early phase and chronic itching with severe dermatitis in the late phase, in comparison with that of dexamethasone. We have previously reported that prostaglandin D(2) might have a physiological role in the inhibition of pruritus. While after 2 weeks of cohabitation with skin-lesioned NC mice (early phase of dermatitis, characterized by the appearance of spontaneous scratching), topically applied TS-022 exhibited a weak anti-pruritic effect in the NC mice, after 6 weeks of cohabitation (late phase, characterized by both chronic scratching and dermatitis), the drug exerted potent anti-pruritic activity. In contrast, dexamethasone exerted potent anti-pruritic effect in both the early and late phases. Indomethacin aggravated the scratching in the early phase, but had no effect in the late phase. The skin prostaglandin D(2) level was significantly increased in the early phase, to subsequently declined and return to the basal level in the late phase. The cutaneous ability for prostaglandin D(2) production following topical application of arachidonic acid or mechanical scratching was decreased in the late phase. Moreover, the expression level of the prostanoid DP(1) receptor in the skin was increased in the late phase. These findings suggest that the potent anti-pruritic activity of TS-022 in the late phase might be attributable to the decrease of endogenous prostaglandin D(2) production and increase of prostanoid DP(1) receptor expression.

Abstract
In atopic dermatitis, scratching of the skin as a reaction to itching causes injury to the skin, which, in turn, further increases the itching resulting in the establishment of the so-called itch-scratch circle. We have shown that prostaglandin (PG) D2 plays an inhibitory role against pruritus in mice with atopic-like dermatitis; therefore, we examined the relationship between scratching and the cutaneous PGD2 level using an artificial scratching model with a wire brush. Mechanical scratching induced a temporary increase of the skin PGs levels (PGE2, PGD2, 6-ketoPGF1alpha, PGF2alpha). The skin PGD2 level and the ability of PGD2 production decreased at 48 h after repeated scratch, compared to that of normal skin, not so after single scratch. Immunohistochemical analysis and Western blotting revealed a decrease in the levels of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and hematopoietic PGD synthase in mechanically scratched skin. The reduced ability of the skin for PGD2 production following mechanical scratching could be caused by this decrease in the expression levels of COX-1 and PGD2 synthase. The results suggest that repeated scratching in mice decreases the ability of the skin to produce PGD2, which is an endogenous mediator that inhibits pruritus, resulting in the establishment of the itch-scratch circle.
