Mechanism and Clinical Observation of Effect of Growgx Yeast Fermentation Product Extract on Photo-aged HFF-1 Cells

[Objectives]To explore the effect of the extract of Growgx yeast fermentation product on ultraviolet A(UVA)-induced photo-aging of human skin fibroblasts(HFF-1)and its specific mechanisms from the level of cell biology,and discussed the application of the Growgx yeast fermentation product extract for skin aging.[Methods]A photo-aging model of HFF-1 cells was induced by UVA radiation meter,and it was given different concentrations of Growgx for intervention.The proliferation activity of the HFF-1 cells was detected with MTT method,and their migration and invasion ability was measured by scratch test.The SOD,HYP and MDA levels were detected with corresponding kits.After oxygen infusion apparatus assisted facial skin administration,the repair of the skin was observed through the VISIA skin tester.[Results]The survival rate of HFF-1 cells was reduced significantly by UVA with an irradiation dose of 10.8 J/cm2(P<0.05),while Growgx significantly increased their survival rate(P<0.001)and sped up the repair of damaged cells.Growgx promoted the production of SOD(P<0.05),reduced the level of MDA(P<0.05),and increased the level of HYP(P<0.05).Growgx effectively inhibited UVA-induced photo-aging of HFF-1 cells.The mechanism may be related to accelerating cell damage repair,up-regulating SOD and HYP expression levels,and reducing MDA expression level.The clinical observation showed that Growgx effectively improved skin spots and pores,making the skin smoother and more delicate.[Conclusions]Growgx can effectively fight against photo-aging caused by ultraviolet rays,and can significantly improve skin wrinkles.
