The unavoidable daily exposure of the skin to ultraviolet (UV) B radiation is proven to have deleterious effects. The action mechanism of antioxidin-RL, an antioxidant peptide purified from skin secretions of frog Odorrana livida with amino acid sequence of AMRLTYNRPCIYAT, is well characterized by NMR titration and mutation based on ABTS+ scavenging activities. In order to explore the protective effects of antioxidin-RL against UVB-irradiated skin photoaging, cell uptake assay was used to detect the location of antioxidin-RL molecules serving various biological functions in the cells. The protective effects of antioxidin-RL on UVB-induced response were examined in vitro and in vivo. Results showed that antioxidin-RL successfully penetrated the cell membrane and exerted a positive effect on cell migration. It also effectively inhibited the UVB-induced excessive production of ROS and prevented oxidative damage to DNAs and proteins. Moreover, the mRNA expressions of MMP-1, VEGF, COX-2, and pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6 and TNF-α in antioxidin-RL-treated HaCaT and HSF cells were significantly down-regulated whereas those of FGF, procollagen type I and TGF-β1 up-regulated. Antioxidin-RL effectively prevented UVB-induced erythema on mouse skin, thereby inhibiting UVB-induced skin thickening and inflammation and increasing collagen deposition as demonstrated by in vivo experiments. Hence, the novel antioxidant peptide antioxidin-RL can effectively reduce UVB-induced skin reactions in vivo and in vitro, providing potential molecules against UVB-induced inflammation and photoaging.
