Activation of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Alpha Improves Aged and UV-Irradiated Skin by Catalase Induction

Abstract: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) is a nuclear hormone receptor involved in the transcriptional regulation of lipid metabolism, fatty acid oxidation, and glucose homeostasis. Its activation stimulates antioxidant enzymes such as catalase, whose expression is decreased in aged human skin. Here we investigated the expression of PPARα in aged and ultraviolet (UV)-irradiated skin, and whether PPARα activation can modulate expressions of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1 and procollagen throug… Show more

“…Catalase breaks down hydrogen peroxide, rendering it nontoxic [17]. The overexpression of catalase was shown to protect keratinocytes by decreasing intracellular ROS, inhibiting apoptosis in keratinocytes [18], and reducing MMP-1 levels in dermal fibroblasts [19]. GSH reduces oxidative molecules, including hydrogen peroxides and lipid radicals, by acting as an electron donor, which results in its conversion to GSSG.…”
