Antioxidant Sebum Regulation Anti-aging Anti-inflammatory Hydration Collagen Protection Hyaluronic Acid Support Pore Reduction

Science

Mechanism of Action

The extract acts as a potent natural antioxidant, rich in vitamin E, carotenoids, chlorophyll, and tocopherols, efficiently scavenging free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS). It demonstrates anti-inflammatory properties by reducing pro-inflammatory factors, such as prostaglandin E2 release, and down-regulating COX-2 gene expression. Furthermore, it promotes skin regeneration and tissue repair, accelerates fibroblast maturation, and enhances cell viability in irritated epidermal tissues. It confers anti-photoaging benefits by protecting against UVB-induced damage, diminishing Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) expression, and boosting pro-collagen-1 production. Sebum regulation is achieved through the repression of genes involved in fatty acid, diglyceride, triglyceride, and cholesterol synthesis. Additionally, it improves skin hydration by stimulating aquaporin 3 expression and supporting intrinsic hyaluronic acid production while inhibiting its degradation.

Key findings

  1. 01 At a 0.1% concentration, the extract statistically downregulated 8 genes critical for lipid production (SREBF1, NR1 H3 (LXRa), APPL1, ADIPOR1, DGAT1, MGAT1, SCD, PTSG2 (COX-2)), indicating significant sebum regulation.
  2. 02 In human skin fibroblasts, the extract maintained 97% cell viability at 500 µg/ml and dose-dependently inhibited intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) production in UVB-irradiated cells. It also reduced UVB-induced MMP-1 expression and protected type 1 procollagen.
  3. 03 A formulation containing Tetraselmis suecica extract significantly reduced sebum content, the number of fine and large pores, and improved skin microrelief and hydration after a 28-day application on oily mature skin.
  4. 04 A dual bioactivated marine microalgal extract, derived from Tetraselmis suecica fermented with Saccharomyces boulardii, demonstrated enhanced anti-ageing efficacy, stimulating skin's natural hyaluronic acid (HA) production, inhibiting HA degradation, regulating sebum, and providing superior antioxidant protection.
