Summary

Anti-inflammatory Antioxidant Skin Soothing Acne Treatment

Science

Mechanism of Action

The primary active component, a soluble polysaccharide designated DL1, demonstrates robust anti-inflammatory action. It functions by significantly suppressing the release of inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in activated macrophages. This effect is achieved through modulation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, specifically by inhibiting the phosphorylation of p38 and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK).

Key findings

  1. 01 Achieved a significant 91.23 ± 0.46% inhibitory effect on bovine serum albumin thermal denaturation by the polysaccharide DL1, demonstrating strong anti-inflammatory potential.
  2. 02 The polysaccharide DL1 exhibited an IC50 for inhibiting bovine serum albumin denaturation, indicating effective anti-inflammatory activity.
  3. 03 Polysaccharide DL1 strongly inhibited the release of inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages, highlighting its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
