Ultraviolet radiation and skin aging: roles of reactive oxygen species, inflammation and protease activation, and strategies for prevention of inflammation‐induced matrix degradation – a review (2005, background): “These factors are co-ordinately responsible for a huge range of extracellular signalling molecules responsible for inflammation, tissue remodelling, oncogenesis and apoptosis, processes that orchestrate many of the degenerative processes associated with aging [41].”
Skin ageing and its treatment (2007, background): “the wide-ranging effects of UV in activating cell surface growth factor and cytokine receptors, researchers have been able to ascertain that skin ageing (extrinsic and intrinsic) is marked by elevated AP-1 activity and MMP expression, inhibited TGFβ signalling, as well as reduced collagen synthesis ”
FTIR analysis of natural and synthetic collagen (2018, background): “light of materials made of natural polymers (111, 112).”
