Science

Mechanism of Action

This extract functions at a cellular level to mitigate environmental damage and support skin vitality. It actively reduces the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and attenuates apoptosis stimulated by UVB radiation and hydrogen peroxide, directly combating oxidative stress. Furthermore, it inhibits the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), enzymes responsible for collagen degradation, and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), a key inflammatory mediator. General callus extracts are also recognized for their ability to promote the proliferation of keratinocytes and fibroblasts, crucial for skin repair, and to inhibit glycation, which contributes to skin aging.

Key findings

  1. 01 A methanol extract from Malus baccata (Mb-ME) exhibited significant antioxidant capacity in DPPH and ABTS assays. In vitro, using human keratinocyte (HaCaT) and dermal fibroblast (HDF) cells, Mb-ME attenuated UVB and H2O2-stimulated apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. It also blocked the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), collectively indicating anti-aging and anti-inflammatory effects.
  2. 02 An ethanolic extract from *Malus x domestica* Borkh var. Mela Rosa Marchigiana pulp callus culture (MRME), a related apple species, demonstrated significant protective effects against oxidative stress-induced damage across cell-free, in vitro, and ex vivo assays. These effects were observed within a concentration range of 50-500 µg/mL.
