| Abstract | Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are known to be up-regulated by a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent mechanism in skin after exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UV) and to participate in tissue remodeling, leading to wrinkles and other phenotypes of photo-aging. Thus, it has been assumed that the progress of photo-aging may be decelerated by suppressing the UV-induced expression of MMPs. In this regard, plant extracts enriched with polyphenolic antioxidants are attractive materials, because they may suppress the expression of MMPs by lowering ROS levels. To examine this possibility, the extracts of twelve plants were tested for their ability to alter the UVB-induced MMP-1 expression in cultured human dermal fibroblasts. Among the tested extracts, an extract of Quercus glauca Thunberg (QG) inhibited MMP-1 expression most effectively without any noticeable cytotoxicity. In addition, its water fraction was more active than 1-buthanol and methylene chloride fractions, implicating the active constituents may be watersoluble. Rutin, one of the major water-soluble polyphenolic constituents of QG, showed an inhibitory effect against UVB-induced MMP-1 expression. Both QG extract and rutin lowered ROS levels in UVB-exposed cells, suggesting that their inhibitory effects on MMP-1 expression may be associated with the antioxidant effects of lowering intracellular ROS levels. The water-soluble constituents of QG may provide a protective effect against the UVB-induced photo-aging of human skin. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
