Environmental Stressors on Skin Aging. Mechanistic Insights

Frontiers in Pharmacology, Journal Year: 2019, Volume and Issue: 10

Published: July 9, 2019

The skin is the main barrier that protects us against environmental stressors (physical, chemical and biological). These stressors, combined with internal factors, are responsible for cutaneous aging throughout life. Furthermore, they also negatively impact represent an increased risk of diseases, particularly cancer. This review addresses on aging, especially those related to general specific external factors (lifestyles, occupations, pollutants light exposure). More specifically, we have evaluated ambient air pollution, household from non-combustion sources, exposure (UV radiation, blue red light). We approach molecular pathways involved in pathology, as a result these stressors. Finally, make reflection how several components stress can interact ultraviolet radiation cause cell damage critical importance knowing mechanisms develop new therapies maintain without old age repair diseases skin.

Environmental exposure plays a major role in the development of allergic diseases. The exposome can be classified into internal (e.g., aging, hormones, and metabolic processes), specific external chemical pollutants or lifestyle factors), general broader socioeconomic psychological contexts) domains, all which are interrelated. All factors we exposed to, from moment conception to death, part exposome.

Understanding the fate of plastics in environment is critical importance for quantitative assessment biological impacts plastic waste. Specially, there a need to analyze more detail reputed longevity context degradation through oxidation and fragmentation reactions. Photo-oxidation debris by solar UV radiation (UVR) makes material prone subsequent fragmentation.

Modulation of Phytohormone Signaling: A Primary Function of Flavonoids in Plant–Environment Interactions

Frontiers in Plant Science, Journal Year: 2018, Volume and Issue: 9

Published: July 20, 2018

The old observation that plants preferentially synthesize flavonoids with respect to the wide range of phenylpropanoid structures when exposed high doses UV-B radiation has supported view are primarily involved in absorbing shortest solar wavelengths photoprotection. However, there is compelling evidence biosynthesis similarly upregulated response photosynthetically active presence or absence UV-radiation, as well excess metal ions and photosynthetic redox unbalance. This supports hypothesis may play prominent roles scavengers reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by light excess. These 'antioxidant' functions appears robust, maintained between different life kingdoms, e.g., animals. ability buffer stress-induced large alterations ROS homeostasis and, hence, modulate ROS-signaling cascade, at base well-known developmental regulators both There long very recent indeed that, plants, strongly affect phytohormone signaling, auxin abscisic acid signaling. function served a low (nM) concentration involves inhibit activity protein kinases, including but not limited mitogen-activated operate downstream regulation cell growth differentiation. For example, transport acting on serine-threonine PINOID (PID) kinases regulate localization efflux facilitators PIN-formed (PIN) proteins. Flavonoids also determine gradients cellular tissue levels, consequential processes, reducing catabolism.

Environmental effects of stratospheric ozone depletion, UV radiation, and interactions with climate change: UNEP Environmental Effects Assessment Panel, Update 2020

Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences, Journal Year: 2021, Volume and Issue: 20(1), P. 1 - 67

Published: Jan. 1, 2021

Abstract This assessment by the Environmental Effects Assessment Panel (EEAP) of United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) provides latest scientific update since our most recent comprehensive (Photochemical and Photobiological Sciences, 2019, 18, 595–828). The interactive effects between stratospheric ozone layer, solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation, climate change are presented within framework Montreal Protocol Sustainable Development Goals. We address how these global environmental changes affect atmosphere air quality; human health; terrestrial aquatic ecosystems; biogeochemical cycles; materials used in outdoor construction, energy technologies, fabrics. In many cases, there is a growing influence from seasonality extreme events due to change. Additionally, we assess transmission severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which responsible for COVID-19 pandemic, context linkages with UV radiation Protocol.
