Abstract
The skin, being the largest organ in the human body, plays a pivotal role in safeguarding the body against invasive pathogens. Therefore, it is essential to reinforce and protect this vital organ. Current research supports the impact of probiotics on skin health and their ability to alleviate various skin disorders. However, the effectiveness and probable side effects of probiotics in skin care remain a subject of debate, necessitating further investigation and analysis. Hence, this study aims to highlight existing gaps and future needs in the current research on probiotics in skin care and pave the way for future investigations. Therefore, we scrutinized the effects of oral (fermented foods and dietary supplements) and non-oral/topical probiotics on skin care, and the mechanism of probiotics that affect skin health. The results of most studies showed that fermented foods containing probiotics, particularly dairy products, positively impact skin health. The research results regarding the efficacy of probiotic supplements and live strains in treating skin disorders show promising potential. However, safety evaluations are crucial, to identify any potential adverse effects. While research has identified numerous potential mechanisms by which probiotics may influence skin health, a complete understanding of their precise mode of action remains elusive. However, it seems that probiotics can exert their positive effects through the gut-skin and gut-skin-brain axis on the human body. Therefore, following the identification of safe probiotics, additional studies should be carried out to establish optimal dosages, potential side effects, suitable regulatory guidelines, and validation methods.

[PMID: 38278974 DOI: 10.1007/s10123-024-00485-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 01/28/2024]
Abstract
Bifidobacteria are the most prevalent members of the intestinal microbiota in mammals and other animals, and they play a significant role in promoting gut health through their probiotic effects. Recently, the potential applications of Bifidobacteria have been extended to skin health. However, the beneficial mechanism of Bifidobacteria on the skin barrier remains unclear. In this study, keratinocyte HaCaT cells were used as models to evaluate the protective effects of the cell-free supernatant (CFS), heat-inactivated bacteria, and bacterial lysate of Bifidobacterium animalis CGMCC25262 on the skin barrier and inflammatory cytokines. The results showed that all the tested samples were able to upregulate the transcription levels of biomarker genes associated with the skin barrier, such as hyaluronic acid synthetase (HAS) and aquaporins (AQPs). Notably, the transcription of the hyaluronic acid synthetase gene-2 (HAS-2) is upregulated by 3~4 times, and AQP3 increased by 2.5 times when the keratinocyte HaCaT cells were co-incubated with 0.8 to 1% CFS. In particular, the expression level of Filaggrin (FLG) in HaCaT cells increased by 1.7 to 2.7 times when incubated with Bifidobacterial samples, reaching its peak at a concentration of 0.8% CFS. Moreover, B. animalis CGMCC25262 also decreased the expression of the proinflammatory cytokine RANTES to one-tenth compared to the levels observed in HaCaT cells induced with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interferon gamma (IFN-γ). These results demonstrate the potential of B. animalis CGMCC25262 in protecting the skin barrier and reducing inflammatory response.

Chemical Composition and Antioxidant, Antimicrobial, and Anti-Inflammatory Properties of Origanum compactum Benth Essential Oils from Two Regions: In Vitro and In Vivo Evidence and In Silico Molecular Investigations. Molecules 2022; 27:7329. [PMID: 36364152 PMCID: PMC9653751 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27217329] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2022] [Revised: 10/12/2022] [Accepted: 10/21/2022] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The purposes of this investigatory study were to determine the chemical composition of the essential oils (EOs) of Origanum compactum from two Moroccan regions (Boulemane and Taounate), as well as the evaluation of their biological effects. Determining EOs' chemical composition was performed by a gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometer (GC-MS). The antioxidant activity of EOs was evaluated using free radical scavenging ability (DPPH method), fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP), and lipid peroxidation inhibition assays. The anti-inflammatory effect was assessed in vitro using the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) inhibition test and in vivo using the carrageenan-induced paw edema model. Finally, the antibacterial effect was evaluated against several strains using the disk-diffusion assay and the micro-dilution method. The chemical constituent of O. compactum EO (OCEO) from the Boulemane zone is dominated by carvacrol (45.80%), thymol (18.86%), and α-pinene (13.43%). However, OCEO from the Taounate zone is rich in 3-carene (19.56%), thymol (12.98%), and o-cymene (11.16%). OCEO from Taounate showed higher antioxidant activity than EO from Boulemane. Nevertheless, EO from Boulemane considerably inhibited 5-LOX (IC50 = 0.68 ± 0.02 µg/mL) compared to EO from Taounate (IC50 = 1.33 ± 0.01 µg/mL). A similar result was obtained for tyrosinase inhibition with Boulemane EO and Taounate EO, which gave IC50s of 27.51 ± 0.03 μg/mL and 41.83 ± 0.01 μg/mL, respectively. The in vivo anti-inflammatory test showed promising effects; both EOs inhibit and reduce inflammation in mice. For antibacterial activity, both EOs were found to be significantly active against all strains tested in the disk-diffusion test, but O. compactum EO from the Boulemane region showed the highest activity. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) for O. compactum EO from the Boulemane region ranged from 0.06 to 0.25% (v/v) and from 0.15 to 0.21% (v/v) for O. compactum from the Taounate region. The MBC/MIC index revealed that both EOs exhibited remarkable bactericidal effects.
