Objective: To study the effect of baicalein on ultraviolet B(UVB) induced-human skin keratinocyte (HaCaT) cell light aging and p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) signaling pathways. Method: The 1×10-11

1×10-7
1×10-6
1×10-5
1×10-4
1×10-3 mol·L-1 baicalein were used on HaCaT cells
and the best effective concentration was determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) method. In the preliminary experiments
UVB with radiation intensity of 0.5 mW·cm-2 was selected
and with radiation time for 5 min to establish light aging models. Then the best effective concentration was used on the light aging models. MTT method was used to detect the cells activity in each group; superoxide dismutase(SOD)
glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)
catalase(CAT) and malondialdehyde(MDA) kits were used to detect SOD
GSH-Px
CAT activity and MDA content respectively. Real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot were used respectively to detect mRNA and protein expression levels in each group. Result: 1×10-7
1×10-6
1×10-5 mol·L-1 baicalein were selected as the best effective concentrations. As compared with the blank group
UVB had no significant proliferation effect on HaCaT cells. As compared with UVB group
1×10-7
1×10-6
and 1×10-5mol·L-1 baicalein had no obvious effect on the proliferation of light aging models. As compared with the blank group
SOD
GSH-Px and CAT activities were significantly decreased while MDA contend was increased in UVB group (P <0.01). As compared with UVB model group
1×10-7
1×10-6
1×10-5 mol·L-1 baicalein could increase SOD
GSH-Px and CAT activities
and decrease MDA contend (P <0.05
P <0.01). As compared with the blank group
the expression levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α mRNA as well as TNF-α and p38 protein were significantly increased in UVB group (P <0.01). As compared with UVB model group
1×10-7
1×10-6
1×10-5 mol·L-1 baicalein could decrease the expression levels of TNF-α mRNA as well as TNF-α and p38 protein (P <0.05
P <0.01). Conclusion: Baicalein has the protective effect on UVB-induced cell light aging
and its mechanism is mainly associated with tenhancing GSH-Px
