PINUS DENSIFLORA EXTRACT PROTECTS HUMAN SKIN FIBROBLASTS AGAINST UVB-INDUCED PHOTOAGING BY INHIBITING THE EXPRESSION OF MMPS AND INCREASING TYPE I PROCOLLAGEN EXPRESSION

Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light can cause skin photoaging, which is associated with upregulation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and downregulation of collagen synthesis.It has been reported that MMPs, especially MMP-1, MMP-3 and MMP-9, decrease the elasticity of the dermis by degrading collagen.In this study, we assessed the effects of Pinu

The article describes a system-structural analysis of 311 German pseudo-borrowings.The research objective was to classify pseudo-borrowed onyms in the German literary language as pseudo-borrowings or proper names.Pseudo-borrowed onyms are different from assimilates, erratives, pseudomotives, homeonims, memorative fictionyms, and pseudo-Latin cognom

Direct-conversion architecture-based orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems are troubled by impairments such as in-phase and quadrature-phase (I/Q) imbalance and copyright frequency offset (CFO).These impairments are unavoidable in any practical implementation and severely degrade the obtainable link performance.In this contribut

The presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in soil negatively affects the environment and the degradation of these contaminants is influenced by nitrogen metabolism.However, the mechanisms underlying the interrelationships between the functional genes involved in nitrogen metabolism and phenanthrene (PHE) biodegradation, as well as the
