Journal ArticleDOI

Microplastics effects in Scrobicularia plana.

TL;DR: Results revealed that microplastics induce effects on antioxidant capacity, DNA damage, neurotoxicity and oxidative damage, and that S. plana is a significant target to assess the environmental risk of PS microplastic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protective effect of topical formulations containing quercetin against UVB-induced oxidative stress in hairless mice.

TL;DR: This is the first study to demonstrate the effectiveness of topical formulations containing quercetin to inhibit the UVB irradiation-induced skin damages, and suggests the possible usefulness of topical formulated with quercETin to prevent UVB radiation skin damages.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quercetin in w/o microemulsion: in vitro and in vivo skin penetration and efficacy against UVB-induced skin damages evaluated in vivo.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the daily application of the w/o microemulsion for up to 2 days did not cause skin irritation and significantly prevented the UVB irradiation-induced GSH depletion and secretion/activity of metalloproteinases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quercetin inhibits UV irradiation-induced inflammatory cytokine production in primary human keratinocytes by suppressing NF-κB pathway

TL;DR: The ability of quercetin to block UV irradiation-induced skin inflammation is mediated, at least in part, by its inhibitory effect on NF-κB activation and inflammatory cytokine production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protective effect of Calendula officinalis extract against UVB-induced oxidative stress in skin: Evaluation of reduced glutathione levels and matrix metalloproteinase secretion

TL;DR: Additional studies are required to have a complete understanding of the protective effects of ME for skin, as this extract affects the activity/secretion of matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9 stimulated by exposure to UVB irradiation.
