• UVC
• Collagen
• Prolidase
• alpha(2)beta(1) Integrin
• IGF-IR
• NF-kappa B p65

The effects of UVC on collagen biosynthesis, prolidase activity, expression of alpha(2)beta(1) integrin, IGF-I receptor, FAK, MAP-kinases (ERK1 and ERK2) and the transcription factor NF-kappa B p65 were evaluated in human dermal fibroblasts. Confluent fibroblasts were treated with UVC light at a rates of 30 and 60 J/m(2). It was found that UVC-dependent decrease in collagen biosynthesis was not accompanied by parallel decrease in prolidase activity and expression. Since insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) and alpha(2)beta(1) integrin signaling are the most potent regulators of collagen biosynthesis, the effect of UVC on IGF-IR and alpha(2)beta(1) integrin receptor expressions were evaluated. It was found that the exposure of the cells to UVC contributed to decrease in alpha(2)beta(1) integrin receptor and FAK expression and to an increase in IGF-IR and pERK1, pERK2 expressions. It was accompanied by an increase in the expression of NF-kappa B p65, the known inhibitor of collagen gene expression. The data suggest that UVC-dependent decrease of collagen biosynthesis in cultured human skin fibroblasts results from decrease in alpha(2)beta(1) integrin receptor signaling and activation of NF-kappa B p65, that is responsible for down-regulation of collagen gene expression.
