Antiaging, Brightening, and Antioxidant Efficacy of Fermented Bilberry Extract ( Vaccinium myrtillus): A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial. Nutrients 2024; 16:2203. [PMID: 39064646 PMCID: PMC11280171 DOI: 10.3390/nu16142203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2024] [Revised: 07/01/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Strategies for successful aging, including the use of food supplements, are part of the approach to support skin youthfulness. To demonstrate the efficacy of fermented bilberry extract (FBE) against skin aging and uneven complexion, a clinical trial was carried out on 66 subjects with visible "crow's feet" wrinkles, mild-to-moderate skin slackness, and uneven skin tone. The wrinkle depth, skin smoothness (Ra) and roughness (Rz), skin firmness (R0) and elasticity (R2), skin coloration (ITA°), and skin antioxidant capacity were measured before and after 28 (D28), 56 (D56), and 84 (D84) days of product use (either FBE or a placebo). These parameters were also integrated with a clinical evaluation, carried out by a dermatologist, and a self-assessment questionnaire to align the measured efficacy with the visual or perceived efficacy. At D84, the wrinkle depth had decreased by 10.6%, Ra had improved by 7.9%, Rz had decreased by 7.3%, R0 had improved by 13.3%, R2 had improved by 12.4%, and skin antioxidant capacity had increased by 20.8%. ITA° increased by 20.8% and was accompanied by a decrease in the skin's redness component by 16.8% and an increase in the lightness component by 2.2%. The variation of all the above-mentioned parameters was statistically significant between the FBE and PL groups. Our findings demonstrate the efficacy of FBE in improving skin aging and complexion evenness.

Abstract
PMM2-CDG (MIM # 212065), the most common congenital disorder of glycosylation, is caused by the deficiency of phosphomannomutase 2 (PMM2). It is a multisystemic disease of variable severity that particularly affects the nervous system; however, its molecular pathophysiology remains poorly understood. Currently, there is no effective treatment. We performed an RNA-seq based transcriptomic study using patient-derived fibroblasts to gain insight into the mechanisms underlying the clinical symptomatology and to identify druggable targets. Systems biology methods were used to identify cellular pathways potentially affected by PMM2 deficiency, including Senescence, Bone regulation, Cell adhesion and Extracellular Matrix (ECM) and Response to cytokines. Functional validation assays using patients' fibroblasts revealed defects related to cell proliferation, cell cycle, the composition of the ECM and cell migration, and showed a potential role of the inflammatory response in the pathophysiology of the disease. Furthermore, treatment with a previously described pharmacological chaperone reverted the differential expression of some of the dysregulated genes. The results presented from transcriptomic data might serve as a platform for identifying therapeutic targets for PMM2-CDG, as well as for monitoring the effectiveness of therapeutic strategies, including pharmacological candidates and mannose-1-P, drug repurposing.

Abstract
As epigenetic clocks have evolved from powerful estimators of chronological aging to predictors of mortality and disease risk, it begs the question of what role DNA methylation plays in the aging process. We hypothesize that while it has the potential to serve as an informative biomarker, DNA methylation could also be a key to understanding the biology entangled between aging, (de)differentiation, and epigenetic reprogramming. Here we use an unsupervised approach to analyze time associated DNA methylation from both in vivo and in vitro samples to measure an underlying signal that ties these phenomena together. We identify a methylation pattern shared across all three, as well as a signal that tracks aging in tissues but appears refractory to reprogramming, suggesting that aging and reprogramming may not be fully mirrored processes.

Abstract
Skin aging is a dynamic process that determines structural alterations in ECM and reduction in dermal fibroblasts. The recent availability on the market of an innovative polycomponent formulation (KARISMA Rh Collagen® FACE, K) containing noncrosslinked high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid (HMW-HA), a human recombinant polypeptide of collagen-1 alpha chain, and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), attracted our scientific interest in evaluating its biomolecular effects on human dermal adult and aged fibroblasts. After treatment with increasing K concentrations, cell proliferation, collagen I, prolyl 4-hydroxylase (P4HA1), an essential protein in collagen biosynthesis, and α-SMA levels were assessed. The fibroblast contractility, TGF-β1 levels, and oxidative stress markers were also evaluated. K formulation exposure led to a significant and dose-dependent increase in the proliferation and migration of adult fibroblasts. Of note, the K exposure counteracted the H2O2-induced aging by promoting cell proliferation, reducing β-galactosidase activity, and neutralizing the aging-associated oxidative damage. Moreover, an increase in collagen I, P4HA1, α-SMA, TGF-β1 levels, and improved contractility of adult and aged fibroblasts were observed after treatment. Overall, our results show evidence that the K treatment is efficacious in improving biological functions in adult fibroblasts and suppressing the biomolecular events associated with H2O2-induced cellular aging, thus supporting the regenerative and bio-revitalizing action of the K formulation helpful in preventing or treating skin aging.

Abstract
In the aging communities, wound healing management is a quite remarkable problem especially in elderly individuals. The optimal level of healing of wounds developed spontaneously or due to surgery is of critical importance in order to prevent the negative effects that may occur due to delayed healing (for example, organ or system damage caused by infections that may develop in the wound area). The deteriorated subcellular redox signaling is considered to be as the main factor in the chronicity of wounds. The pivotal role of mitochondria in redox regulation reveals the importance of modulation of redox signaling pathways in senescent cells. Secretory factors released upon the acquisition of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) function in a paracrine manner to disseminate impaired tissue redox status by affecting the redox metabolome of nearby cells, which could promote age-related pro-inflammatory pathologies. Evaluating the wound-site redox regulation in impaired redox signaling pathways may help prevent the formation of chronic wounds and the development of long-term complications of the wounds, especially in the elderly. Using the redox modulatory pharmacologically active substances targeting the senescent cells in chronic wound areas hopefully opens a new avenue in wound management. As the signaling mechanisms of wound healing and its relationship with advanced age become more clearly understood, many promising therapeutic approaches and redox modulator substances are coming into clinical view for the management of chronic wounds.

Abstract
Skin aging is a multifaceted process that involves intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms that lead to various structural and physiological changes in the skin. Intrinsic aging is associated with programmed aging and cellular senescence, which are caused by endogenous oxidative stress and cellular damage. Extrinsic aging is the result of environmental factors, such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation and pollution, and leads to the production of reactive oxygen species, ultimately causing DNA damage and cellular dysfunction. In aged skin, senescent cells accumulate and contribute to the degradation of the extracellular matrix, which further contributes to the aging process. To combat the symptoms of aging, various topical agents and clinical procedures such as chemical peels, injectables, and energy-based devices have been developed. These procedures address different symptoms of aging, but to devise an effective anti-aging treatment protocol, it is essential to thoroughly understand the mechanisms of skin aging. This review provides an overview of the mechanisms of skin aging and their significance in the development of anti-aging treatments.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are a heterogeneous population containing multipotent adult stem cells with a multi-lineage differentiation capacity, which differentiated into mesodermal derivatives. MSCs are employed for therapeutic purposes and several investigations have demonstrated that the positive effects of MSC transplants are due to the capacity of MSCs to modulate tissue homeostasis and repair via the activity of their secretome. Indeed, the MSC-derived secretomes are now an alternative strategy to cell transplantation due to their anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and regenerative effects. The cellular senescence is a dynamic process that leads to permanent cell cycle arrest, loss of healthy cells' physiological functions and acquiring new activities, which are mainly accrued through the release of many factors, indicated as senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). The senescence occurring in stem cells, such as those present in MSCs, may have detrimental effects on health since it can undermine tissue homeostasis and repair. The analysis of MSC secretome is important either for the MSC transplants and for the therapeutic use of secretome. Indeed, the secretome of MSCs, which is the main mechanism of their therapeutic activity, loses its beneficial functions and acquire negative pro-inflammatory and pro-aging activities when MSCs become senescent. When MSCs or their derivatives are planned to be used for therapeutic purposes, great attention must be paid to these changes. In this review, we analyzed changes occurring in MSC secretome following the switch from healthy to senescence status.

Abstract
Yippee-like 2 (YPEL2) is expressed in tissues and organs enriched in vascular networks, such as heart, kidney, and lung. However, the roles of YPEL2 in endothelial cell senescence and the expression of YPEL2 in atherosclerotic plaques have not yet been investigated. Here, we report the essential role of YPEL2 in promoting senescence in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and the upregulation of YPEL2 in human atherosclerotic plaques. YPEL2 was significantly upregulated in both H2O2-induced senescent HUVECs and the arteries of aged mice. Endothelial YPEL2 deficiency significantly decreased H2O2-increased senescence-associated beta-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity and reversed H2O2-inhibited cell viability. Additionally, endothelial YPEL2 knockdown reduced H2O2-promoted THP-1 cell adhesion to HUVECs and downregulated ICAM1 and VCAM1 expression. Mechanistic studies divulged that the p53/p21 pathway was involved in YPEL2-induced cellular senescence. We conclude that YPEL2 promotes cellular senescence via the p53/p21 pathway and that YPEL2 expression is elevated in atherosclerosis. These findings reveal YPEL2 as a potential therapeutic target in aging-associated diseases.

Phytocannabinoids Stimulate Rejuvenation and Prevent Cellular Senescence in Human Dermal Fibroblasts. Cells 2022; 11:cells11233939.

Abstract
In light of the increased popularity of phytocannabinoids (pCBs) and their appearance in beauty products without rigorous research on their rejuvenation efficacy, we decided to investigate the potential role of pCBs in skin rejuvenation. Utilizing healthy and stress-induced premature senescent (SIPS) CCD-1064Sk skin fibroblasts, the effects of pCBs on cellular viability, functional activity, metabolic function, and nuclear architecture were tested. Both delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) within the range of 0.5 µM to 2.0 µM increased cell growth in a dose-dependent manner while significantly decreasing senescence as measured by beta-galactosidase activity. Utilizing a scratch assay, both THC and CBD (2.0 µM) significantly improved wound healing in both healthy and SIPS fibroblasts. THC and CBD altered nuclear architecture and mRNA levels of cell cycle regulators and genes involved in ECM production. Subsequently, we found ELN, Cyclin D1, PCNA, and BID protein levels altered by SIPS but ameliorated after pCBs exposure in human dermal fibroblasts. Lastly, we compared the efficacy of THC and CBD with common anti-aging nutrient signaling regulators in replicative senescent adult human dermal fibroblasts, CCD-1135Sk. Both THC and CBD were found to improve wound healing better than metformin, rapamycin, and triacetylresveratrol in replicative senescent CCD-1135Sk fibroblasts. Therefore, pCBs can be a valuable source of biologically active substances used in cosmetics, and more studies using clinical trials should be performed to confirm the efficacy of phytocannabinoids.

Abstract
Prolonged or excessive stimulation from inhaled toxins may cause oxidative stress and DNA damage that can lead to stress-induced senescence in epithelial cells, which can contribute to several airway diseases. Mounting evidence has shown carbon monoxide (CO) confers cytoprotective effects. We investigated the effects of CO on oxidative stress-induced senescence in human airway epithelium and elucidated the underlying molecular mechanisms. Here, CO pretreatment reduced H2O2-mediated increases in total reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and mitochondrial superoxide in a human bronchial epithelial cell line (BEAS-2B). H2O2 treatment triggered a premature senescence-like phenotype with enlarged and flattened cell morphology accompanied by increased SA-β-gal activity, cell cycle arrest in G0/G1, reduced cell viability, and increased transcription of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) genes. Additionally, exposure to H2O2 increased protein levels of cellular senescence markers (p53 and p21), reduced Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) levels, and increased p53 K382 acetylation. These H2O2-mediated effects were attenuated by pretreatment with a CO-containing solution. SIRT3 silencing induced mitochondrial superoxide production and triggered a senescence-like phenotype, whereas overexpression decreased mitochondrial superoxide production and alleviated the senescence-like phenotype. Air-liquid interface (ALI) culture of primary human bronchial cells, which becomes a fully differentiated pseudostratified mucociliary epithelium, was used as a model. We found that apical and basolateral exposure to H2O2 induced a vacuolated structure that impaired the integrity of ALI cultures, increased goblet cell numbers, decreased SCGB1A1+ club cell numbers, increased p21 protein levels, and increased SASP gene transcription, consistent with our observations in BEAS-2B cells. These effects were attenuated in the apical presence of a CO-containing solution. In summary, we revealed that CO has a pivotal role in epithelial senescence by regulating ROS production via the SIRT3/MnSOD/p53/p21 pathway. This may have important implications in the prevention and treatment of age-associated respiratory pathologies.

Abstract
Researchers are paying more and more attention to aging, especially skin aging. Therefore, it is urgent to find an effective way to inhibit aging. Here, we report a small chemical molecule, HCP1, that inhibited the senescence of human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs). First, we performed morphological experiment and found that HCP1-treated HDFs were no longer elongated and flat compared to DMSO-treated groups. Next, we found that the number of β-gal positive cells decreased compared to DMSO-treated groups. Through flow cytometry, western blot, and immunofluorescence, we found that HCP1 could inhibit the senescence of HDFs. In the study of the mechanism, we found that HCP1 could regulate the AMPK/mTOR signal pathway through glucose-regulated protein 94 (Grp94). In addition, we found that HCP1 could promote the interaction between Grp94 and lysosomes, which led to an increase in the activity of lysosomes and inhibited the senescence of HDFs. At the same time, we found that HCP1 decreased the concentration of Ca2+ in mitochondria, inhibiting the senescence of HCP1. Therefore, we propose that HCP1 is a potential aging-inhibiting compound, and provide a new idea for the development of senescence-inhibiting drugs.

Abstract
Identifying effective anti-aging compounds is a cornerstone of modern longevity, aging, and skin-health research. There is considerable evidence of the effectiveness of nutrient signaling regulators such as metformin, resveratrol, and rapamycin in longevity and anti-aging studies; however, their potential protective role in skin aging is controversial. In light of the increasing appearance of phytocannabinoids in beauty products without rigorous research on their rejuvenation efficacy, we decided to investigate the potential role of phytocannabinoids in combination with nutrient signaling regulators in skin rejuvenation. Utilizing CCD-1064Sk skin fibroblasts, the effect of metformin, triacetylresveratrol, and rapamycin combined with phytocannabinoids on cellular viability, functional activity, metabolic function, and nuclear architecture was tested. We found triacetylresveratrol combined with cannabidiol increased the viability of skin fibroblasts (p < 0.0001), restored wound-healing functional activity (p < 0.001), reduced metabolic dysfunction, and ameliorated nuclear eccentricity and circularity in senescent fibroblasts (p < 0.01). Conversely, metformin with or without phytocannabinoids did not show any beneficial effects on functional activity, while rapamycin inhibited cell viability (p < 0.01) and the speed of wound healing (p < 0.001). Therefore, triacetylresveratrol and cannabidiol can be a valuable source of biologically active substances used in aging and more studies using animals to confirm the efficacy of cannabidiol combined with triacetylresveratrol should be performed.
