Molecular aspects of skin aging. Literature review

Abstract: Skin aging is a complex process composed of sequential phenomena which lead to structural and functional changes. There are many pathways leading to photoaging, but their mechanisms are not well elucidated. Matrix metalloproteinases are a family of proteases known to degrade collagen. Aged skin is accompanied by higher metalloproteinase production, leading to degradation of extracellular matrix. Another pathway of aging is the complex TGF-β/Smad. Transforming growth factor-β is the primary regulator of collage… Show more

“…In addition to internal aging effects, the exposure to air and especially UV light fosters these processes, making the skin less elastic, wrinkled, stiffened, and less able to recoil 86 .

“…Antioxidant strategies are often used to prevent skin cancer and premature skin aging by inhibiting/spreading photo-oxidative reactions. Supplementation with compounds of plant origin and with pure molecules with recognized antioxidant potential is quite frequent [29]. Plant extracts effectively protect against the effects of sun exposure [30] [31] [32].…”
