Abstract

We prepared nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) to promote skin permeation of Corylin so that it can increase its effect on photoaging. Corylin-NLCs were prepared and characterized based on morphology, particle size, zeta potentials, FTIR and DSC. In vitro, we assess the cytotoxicity and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of HaCaT cells irradiated by UVB. Expression of antioxidant enzymes was evaluated by commercial kits. The effects of Corylin-NLC on apoptosis were confirmed by flow cytometry and western blotting. In vivo, we use UV irradiated mouse as the oxidative stress model to assess the therapeutic effect of Corylin loaded NLC gel. We identified the Corylin-NLCs can significantly suppress the LDH release, decrease MDA content, increase in CAT, SOD, GSH-Px activity, increase the expression of Bcl-2/Bax protein and reduce the expression of cleaved caspase-3/caspase-3 protein on UVB induced HaCaT cells. The histopathological lesions were significantly improved and observably decreased MDA level, increase in antioxidant enzymes activity in serum of mice by pretreatment of Corylin-NLCs gel. Overall, this study proposes a promising strategy for improving the therapeutic efficacy of photoaging.
