Hyperoside and Quercitrin in <i>Houttuynia cordata</i> Extract Attenuate UVB-Induced Human Keratinocyte Cell Damage and Oxidative Stress via Modulation of MAPKs and Akt Signaling Pathway

Ultraviolet radiation is a major environmental harmful factor on human skin. In this paper, we investigate the potential mechanism of <i>Houttuynia cordata</i> extract on UVB-induced HaCaT keratinocyte cell death and inflammation. We found that <i>Houttuynia cordata</i> ethyl...

description Ultraviolet radiation is a major environmental harmful factor on human skin. In this paper, we investigate the potential mechanism of <i>Houttuynia cordata</i> extract on UVB-induced HaCaT keratinocyte cell death and inflammation. We found that <i>Houttuynia cordata</i> ethyl acetate extract fraction (HC-EA) protected against UVB-induced cell damage. The HPLC results indicate that quercitrin and hyperoside are the major polyphenolics in HC-EA and are responsible for providing protection against UVB-induced cell death. These responses were associated with the regulation of caspase-9 and caspase-3 activation, which rescued HaCaT cells from UVB-induced apoptosis. In addition, HC-EA, quercitrin, and hyperoside attenuated UVB-induced inflammatory mediators, including IL-6, IL-8, COX-2, and iNOS. Furthermore, the treatment of cells with HC-EA and its active compounds abolished intracellular ROS and increased levels of heme oxygenase-1 and superoxide dismutase. UVB-induced ROS production mediated Akt and mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) pathways, including p38, ERK, and JNK. Our results show HC-EA, quercitrin, and hyperoside decreased UVB-induced p38 and JNK phosphorylation, while increasing ERK and Akt phosphorylation. MAPKs and Akt mediated cell survival and death were confirmed by specific inhibitors to Akt and MAPKs. Thus, HC-EA, which contains quercitrin and hyperoside, protected keratinocyte from UVB-induced oxidative damage and inflammation through the modulation of MAPKs and Akt signaling.
