Photoaging and oxidative stress
Abstract
Photoaging is significantly different from chronological aging in both clinical and histological appearance. It has been suggested that oxidative stress, generated by ultraviolet radiation (UVR), leads to photoaging over a long period. The presence of 8-OHdG, and oxidatively modified proteins such as 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified protein, 3-L-nitro-tyrosine and N(-epsilon) (carboxymethyl)lysine in UV-exposed skin specimens, supports this theory. The pathophysiology of photoaging of the skin caused by chronic inflammation after UVR is reviewed and discussed, with a focus on oxidative stress.

Skin ageing is influenced by two mechanisms: intrinsic (genetic, chronological) ageing and extrinsic ageing (photoaging) caused by environmental factors including UV radiation, environmental pollution and cigarette smoke.
“One of the most common dermatological and cosmetic concerns is skin ageing: a natural, complex process influenced by two mechanisms—intrinsic (genetic, chronological) ageing resulting from the passage of time, and extrinsic ageing (photoaging), caused by environmental factors (including UV radiation, environmental pollution and cigarette smoke) [5,6,7,8].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
