Role of sRNAs protein molecules in extracellular vesicles derived from Lactobacillus plantarum rejuvenate against ultraviolet B-induced photoaging in human keratinocytes

Ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation accelerates the aging process of skin cells by triggering oxidative stress and inflammatory responses. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of action of sRNAs and protein molecules in the regenerative extracellular vesicles of Lactobacillus plantarum against the UVB-induced photoaging process of human keratinocytes. The extracellular vesicles regenerated by Lactobacillus plantarum were isolated and purified to identify sRNAs and protein components. Human keratinocytes were treated with UVB radiation to simulate the photoaging model. The effects of different concentrations of vesicle extract on cell survival rate, oxidative stress index and inflammatory marker expression were evaluated in control group and treatment group. The results showed that the regenerated extracellular vesicles of L. plantarum significantly improved the survival rate of keratinocytes after UVB radiation, and delayed the aging process of skin cells by reducing oxidative stress and inhibiting inflammatory response.
