The skin aging process is a complex interaction of genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors, such as chemical pollution and UV radiation. There is growing evidence that biosurfactants, especially those of microbial origin, have distinct age-supportive effects through different mechanisms, such as stimulation of fibroblast growth, high antioxidant capacities, and favorable anti-inflammatory properties. With a growing financial contribution of more than 15 m€per year, microbial surfactants (MSs) display unique biological effects on the skin including improved cell mobility, better nutrient access, and facilitated cellular growth under harsh conditions. Their biodegradable nature, unusual surface activity, good safety profile and tolerance to high temperature and pH variations widen their potential spectrum in biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. MSs typically have lower critical micelle concentration (CMC) levels than chemical surfactants enhancing their effectiveness. As natural surfactants, MSs are considered possible "green" alternatives to synthetic surfactants with better biodegradability, sustainability, and beneficial functional properties. This review therefore aims to explore the potential impacts of MSs as anti-aging ingredients.
皮肤衰老过程是遗传、表观遗传和环境因素(如化学污染和紫外线辐射)的复杂相互作用。越来越多的证据表明,生物表面活性剂,尤其是微生物来源的生物表面活性剂,通过不同机制具有独特的支持皮肤年轻化的作用,如刺激成纤维细胞生长、高抗氧化能力和良好的抗炎特性。随着每年超过1500万欧元的资金投入不断增加,微生物表面活性剂(MSs)对皮肤表现出独特的生物学效应,包括改善细胞流动性、更好地获取营养以及在恶劣条件下促进细胞生长。它们的可生物降解性、独特的表面活性、良好的安全性以及对高温和pH变化的耐受性,拓宽了它们在生物医学和制药应用中的潜在范围。与化学表面活性剂相比,MSs通常具有更低的临界胶束浓度(CMC)水平,从而提高了它们的有效性。作为天然表面活性剂,MSs被认为是合成表面活性剂可能的“绿色”替代品,具有更好的生物降解性、可持续性和有益的功能特性。因此,本综述旨在探讨MSs作为抗衰老成分的潜在影响。
