Summary : Ultraviolet B radiation (UVB) is involved in the development of deleterious cutaneous damage. Several changes could be attributed to UVB-induced reactive oxygen species attacks in fibroblasts. However dermal cells from young and adult skin could respond differently to oxidative stress. So antioxidant status and its consequences on cytotoxicity and apoptosis were compared in child foreskin fibroblasts (FF) and adult abdominal skin fibroblasts (AF) in response to UVB. Basal levels of lipid peroxidation tended to be higher in AF than in FF, which could be related to a reshaping of antioxidant defences (higher catalase and lower superoxide dismutase activities). AF and FF appeared to react similarly to high UVB doses as regards cytotoxicity and apoptosis which increased significantly 24h after exposure. The enhancement of cell death could be due to the inherent oxidative stress: glutathione appeared significantly decreased in both cell populations. As a consequence AF, but not FF, presented significantly increased levels of lipid peroxidation, which could be explained by the pre-cited differences of basal antioxidant defences. These results suggest that AF and FF do not respond to UVB by the same pathway.

Skin exposure to ultraviolet B radiation (UVB) (290-320 nm), which is a minor but active constituent of sunlight (4% of total solar UV radiation), contributes to the development of deleterious cutaneous damage such as sunburn, premature cutaneous photoaging or carcinogenesis [1-5]. These effects are emphasized by the intrinsic aging process [6] and by the increase of exposure to UVB related to the use of UV tanning lamps. Among the mechanisms by which UV radiation damages skin and in addition to the known direct cytotoxicity related to genotoxic events, the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and its role in various skin diseases have been extensively studied and reviewed in the literature [7-9]. Indeed, Masaki and Sakurai [10] have demonstrated that UVB irradiation generates ROS in fibroblasts in vitro. As a consequence of the oxidative stress resulting from UVB exposure, Morliere et al. pointed out an increase of fibroblast lipid peroxidation, a marker of cell membrane damage [11].Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain skin aging, and the free radical theory is receiving particular attention because human skin is constantly exposed to ROS coming from the environment (air, solar radiation, ozone, and other pollutants). ROS are also generated from cellular metabolism, both from the mitochondrial respiratory chain, where excess electrons are provided to molecular oxygen to generate superoxide anions [6, 12], and from oxidative metabolism by cytochromes P450 [13].Adverse effects resulting from oxidative stress can be counteracted by different cellular pathways [14]. Specific enzymes like superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione-peroxidase (GPx) and catalase are involved in the detoxification of O2•- into H2O2, and subsequently into H2O and O2. A second major way to maintain the redox equilibrium is the scavenging of free radicals by reduced glutathione (GSH) and related enzymes such as glutathione reductase (GRed).The aims of this work were to compare first the basal antioxidant status of primary cultured human fibroblasts from child foreskin and adult abdominal skin, and secondly the UVB-induced cellular damage (lipid peroxidation) and antioxidant impairment (catalase, SOD, GPx, GRed, GSH) in both cell populations. Moreover we assessed the effects of a range of UVB doses on the apoptotic response related to oxidative damage.

Materials and methods

Chemicals

All chemicals were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (Saint Quentin Fallavier, France). Fetal calf serum (FCS) was provided by Cambrex (Vervier, Belgium) and other media and additives used for fibroblasts isolation and culture were purchased from Invitrogen (Cergy-Pontoise, France).

Experimental procedure

Fibroblasts isolation and culture

Primary cultures of foreskin fibroblasts (FF) and abdominal fibroblasts (AF) were obtained from explants of healthy human dermis (n = 5 for each). The donors’ ages ranged from 3 to 8 years (mean = 5.0 ± 1.2) for foreskins and 26 to 37 years (mean = 33.4 ± 2.0) for abdominal skin.

Fibroblasts were grown in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% FCS, streptomycin (50 U/mL) and penicillin (50 μg/mL) at 37 °C with 5% CO2. Cells were used between 3rd and 7th passages: fibroblasts were seeded at 104 cells/cm2 in 75 cm2 flasks and on blades or 5.103 cells per well in 96 wells.

UVB irradiation

Fibroblast cultures were rinsed with phosphate buffer salt (PBS), and irradiated with UVB (290-320 nm). The UVB source was a Waldmann Bridge equipped by fourteen F8T5 UVB Tubes (Reichstett, France). Doses applied were 20, 500, 1000 mJ/cm2. The emitted radiation was checked using a UV radiometer IL-1700 with UVB filter (Dexter Industrial Green, Newburyport, Massachusetts). After UVB exposure, cells were maintained in DMEM, supplemented as previously, for 2 or 24 h until further analysis.

Fibroblast homogenate preparation

Irradiated fibroblasts in 75 cm2 flasks were washed with cold homogenate buffer [Tris-HCl 50 mM, KCl 150 mM, EDTA 2 mM]. Cells were scrapped in 1.5 mL homogenate buffer and sonicated for 15 s. Homogenates were aliquoted and frozen at – 80 °C until biochemical analysis. Homogenates protein content was assayed using the bicinchoninic acid method [15].

Cytological analysis

Morphological analysis

Cells colonizing blades were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) and stained with May-Grünwald-Giemsa (MGG). Cell morphology was analyzed by light microscopy.

Apoptosis

Apoptotic cells were assessed by flow cytometry as fractions with sub G1 DNA content [16]. Cells were harvested by trypsinization. Pellets of cells were fixed in 70% (v/v) cold ethanol and further washed with cold PBS before the addition of 1 mg/mL RNaseA Dnase-free and 0.1 mg/ml propidium iodide.

Cells were analyzed on an Epics® Altra flow cytometer (Beckman Coulter, Villepinte, France) with 488 nm excitation laser. A minimum of 20,000 events was analyzed for each sample. The analyses, performed on a gated cell population in order to discard cellular debris and doublets, were quantified with Wincycle software (Phoenix Flow Systems, San Diego, CA).

Biochemical analysis

GSH content was measured in homogenates according to the 5,5’-dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DNTB) recycling procedure described by Griffith et al. [17] and modified by Allen and Arthur [18]. Briefly, 40 μL homogenate was deproteinized by addition of 25% 5-sulfosalicylic acid; supernatant was mixed (v/v) with DNTB (0.6 mM) and absorbance was measured at 405 nm immediately after mixing. Results were expressed as nmol/mg cell proteins.

GRed activity was determined in homogenates, according to the procedure described by Carlberg et al. [19] and modified by Bellomo et al. [20], by measuring the disappearance of NADPH (0.1 mM) at 340 nm, in the presence of oxidized glutathione (1 mM). Results were expressed as nmol NADPH oxidized/min/mg cell proteins.

GPx activity was measured as described by Lawrence and Burk [21] in the presence of GSH (2 mM), GRed (0.05 U/mL), NADPH (0.2 mM), NaN3 (2.5 mM) and cumene hydroperoxide (4 mM). GPx activity was determined spectrophotometrically by following the oxidation of NADPH at 340 nm. Results were expressed as nmol NADPH oxidized/min/mg cell proteins.

Catalase activity was evaluated, according to the method of Aebi [22], by spectrophotometric analysis (at 240 nm) of the rate of hydrogen peroxide decomposition in PBS. Homogenates were mixed (v/v) with hydrogen peroxide (15 mM). Enzyme activity was expressed as U/mg cell proteins.

SOD activity was analyzed according to the method of McCord and Fridovich [23] modified by Flohe and Otting [24]. SOD activity was assessed in homogenates as the inhibition of ferricytochrome c reduction by superoxide anions generated from a xanthine-xanthine oxydase system. Ferricytochrome c reduction was monitored spectrophotometrically at 550 nm, with 1 U of SOD corresponding to a 50 % decrease in ferricytochrome reduction. Enzyme activity was expressed as U/mg cell proteins.

Lipid peroxidation was evaluated in homogenates by the method of Okhawa et al. [25] with slight modifications. Briefly thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were measured using a fluorometric procedure. Malonaldehyde (MDA) standards were prepared from tetraethoxypropane and results were calculated as pmol of TBARS/mg proteins.

Cytotoxicity evaluation

Fibroblast viability was assayed 2h and 24h after UVB irradiation in 96 well plates using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5 diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) dye reduction assay [26]. Briefly 15 μL of MTT (5 mg/mL) was added to each well and plates were further cultured for 4 h. 100 μL extraction buffer [10 % (w/v) sodium dodecyl sulphate in 0.5 M dimethylformamide] was then added to each well and plates were incubated overnight at 37 °C. Absorbance was assessed spectrophotometrically at 510 nm. Results were expressed as viability percentages, non irradiated cell controls representing 100% of cell viability.

Statistical analysis

Data were expressed as means with standard errors (m ± sem). Statistical significance was determined using a two-way variance analysis with UVB doses and cell populations as main factors. Differences between groups were considered as significant for p-values < 0.05.

Results

Morphological analysis

MGG staining was performed in unexposed AF and FF or after irradiation with the highest UVB dose (1000 mJ/cm2) ( (figure 1) ). Controls AF or FF and cells exposed to 20 to 500 mJ/cm2 (data not shown) were fusiform, whereas cells adopted a stellate phenotype after 1000 mJ/cm2. AF and FF densities decreased after 500 mJ/cm2 and more, as well 2h as 24h after irradiation.

UVB-induced apoptosis

The apoptotic cell fraction was assayed by flow cytometry. Control FF apoptotic fractions were significantly higher than those of AF (p < 0.05) at 24 h.

No significant difference could be observed in FF and AF 2h after UVB treatment compared with respective controls (data not shown). By contrast we observed a significant (p < 0.05) increase of apoptotic fraction for both FF and AF (23.0% ± 3.6 versus 12.2 ± 2.2 for FF; 29.4% ± 7.7 versus 3.8 ± 1.96 for AF) 24h after UV irradiation with 1000 mJ/cm2( (figure 2) ) compared with respective controls.

UVB-induced cytotoxicity

No cytotoxic effect was detected 2 h after UV exposure ( (figure 3A) ). The viability was significantly (p < 0.05) lower 24h after exposure in both cell populations treated either by 500 or by 1000 mJ/cm2 compared to respective controls (respectively 81.7% ± 3.7 after 500 mJ/cm2 and 68.2% ± 4.3 after 1000 mJ/cm2 for FF, and 84.1% ± 7.1 after 500 mJ/cm2 and 81.8 ± 9.6 after 1000 mJ/cm2 for AF).

Lipid peroxidation

Lipid peroxidation levels tended to be higher in AF than in FF for all the UVB doses assayed. TBARS levels of irradiated FF were similar to controls 2h and 24h after exposure whatever the UVB dose applied was. By contrast, lipid peroxidation appeared significantly increased in AF 2h after 1000 mJ/cm2 (p < 0.01) compared with control cells ( (figure 4) ).

SOD activity

SOD activity was markedly higher in control FF compared to AF (2 h: p < 0.001 and 24 h: p < 0.05) (( figure 5 )A,B). SOD activity was not modified by UVB as well in FF as in AF.

Catalase activity

Catalase presented a significantly higher activity in AF compared to FF 2 h after irradiation with doses lower than 1000 mJ/cm2 and 24h after irradiation with 500 and 1000 mJ/cm2 (( figure 5 )C,D).

Glutathione redox system

GPx

Baseline levels of GPx activity were 39.1 ± 7.5 and 34.9 ± 7.4 nmol/min/mg proteins at 2 h, and 32.7± 5.0 and 36.2 ± 5.1 nmol/min/mg proteins at 24 h for FF and AF respectively. Exposure of AF to 1000 mJ/cm2 UVB induced a significant increase of GPx activity compared to 2 mJ/cm2 (data not shown) and 20 mJ/cm2 24h after treatment (p < 0.05) (( figure 6 )A,B).

GRed

No significant difference in GRed activity could be observed as well between FF and AF as in response to UVB exposure (( figure 6 )C,D).

GSH

GSH contents of control FF and AF were respectively 14.7 ± 1.8 nmol and 14.9 ± 4.8 nmol at 2 h, and 26.4 ± 3.3 nmol and 17.9 ± 4.7 nmol at 24 h ( (figure 6E,F) ). UVB irradiation did not alter GSH levels at any of the doses applied after 2 h. By contrast, irradiation induced significant decreases of GSH 24h after 500 mJ/cm2 and more for FF, and 1000 mJ/cm2 for AF.

Discussion

In the present study, we first compared the basal rate of apoptosis and antioxidant status from child foreskin fibroblasts (FF) and adult abdominal fibroblasts (AF).

It is noticeable that FF presented a higher basal apoptotic level than AF which could be considered as a result of both the difference between anatomic areas of cutaneous biopsies and the higher cellular turnover in the morphogenesis of young tissues [27]. In the same way, Jelaska and Korn [28] have previously reported differences in the apoptotic response of such cellular populations: adult fibroblasts appeared more susceptible to anti-Fas antibody-induced apoptosis than young foreskin fibroblasts. These authors suggested that (i) the process of aging and differentiation might result in the reduction or elimination of some fibroblast subpopulations and also in the observed difference, and that (ii) FF and AF could present different degrees of dependence from growth factors.

Lipid peroxidation in the absence of treatment tended to be higher in AF than in FF even though no statistical difference was observed. This could be explained by the different ages of the two groups of donors as previously described in rat skin [29] and in fibroblast diploid cultures [30].

In the present study, no difference in GSH content or GPx and GRed activities was observed between FF and AF. Nevertheless SOD activity appeared to be three times lower in control AF than in FF, in accordance with the results of Allen et al. [31] who showed a significant decrease of SOD-1 activity with age. On the contrary, Balin et al. [32] showed that Mn-SOD, but also GPx activities were lower in fetal cells than in adult fibroblasts.

Catalase activity was found two times lower in FF than in AF, in accordance with Balin et al. [32]. Sinha also noticed that catalase gene expression was lower in dermal fibroblasts from young donors than from 50 year olds [33].

As a consequence of the previously described reshaping of antioxidant defences, aging reduces the capacity of primary human dermal fibroblasts to respond to oxidative stress [34].

Concurrently we assessed the effects of UVB irradiation on FF and AF viability, antioxidant status and apoptosis.

UV radiations react with various molecules such as lipids, proteins and nucleic acids and also weaken skin endogenous enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants [35]. Actually recent studies have reported that in vitro exposure of human skin fibroblasts to UV causes hydroperoxide, superoxide and hydroxyl radical production [11, 36, 37], and stimulates immediate protective antioxidant mechanisms [38]. Thus, it is of primary importance to better characterize cellular oxidative impairment, and particularly the alterations of endogenous enzymatic and non-enzymatic defences in order to understand their role in UVB-induced injury.

We have also compared the antioxidant response of FF and AF to UVB exposure. Several reports [7-9] describe antioxidant status in human skin but the present study is, to our knowledge, the first one to assess in vitro the antioxidant impairment induced by UVB radiation simultaneously in these two commonly used fibroblast populations. Moreover, established dermal cell lines are often used to study UV-induced cellular damage in vitro, but Leccia et al. [39] showed that the sensitivity of such cell lines was different from that of normal cells.

The wide range of UVB doses was chosen in terms of effects in humans in vivo and according to the literature related to oxidative stress in fibroblasts [40, 41]. The amount of solar UVB reaching the surface of the earth approximates to 18 to 30 mJ.cm–2.min–1[42]. We used doses up to 1000 mJ/cm2 UVB light, representing a maximal dermal exposure of a day of sunbathing at sea level [43], taking into account the epidermis filtration. So the irradiation doses employed mimicked an acute exposure.

The response to UVB radiation was assessed 2 h and 24 h following fibroblast exposure. These two time courses were chosen since the short period (2 h) post-UVB is representative of immediate intracellular deleterious effects or an eventual transient up-regulation of enzyme activities, whereas 24 h post-UVB could reflect a later up-regulation and adaptive changes to modulate oxidative stress.

The morphological study showed a loss of cellular density with the highest UVB doses (500 and 1000 mJ/cm2). Cells adopted a stellate phenotype following 1000 mJ/cm2. Uitto et al. [44] have hypothesized in photoaged skin fibroblasts that this stellate phenotype could be due to an extension of rough endoplasmic reticulum, indicating an increased biosynthetic activity in response to intracellular perturbations.

The increased cytotoxicity observed 24 h after 1000 mJ/cm2 UVB irradiation appeared to be related to an increase of apoptotic fractions and could be visualized through a loss of cell density. These results are consistent with those of Shindo and Hashimoto [45] who reported an increased DNA fragmentation, as a marker of cell death, in irradiated dermal fibroblasts 16 h after exposure (250 mJ/cm2).

ROS may play an essential role in the progression of the various pathways leading to apoptosis since antioxidants have been reported to provide protection against apoptosis [46]. ROS have both intrinsic and extrinsic origins, and cells are protected by multiple levels of antioxidant defences. Among them, GSH represents a major antioxidant. Tyrrell and Pidoux [47] found, using butylsulfoxide-induced GSH depleted cells, that endogenous GSH protected human skin fibroblasts against UVA or UVB-induced cytotoxicity. In our study, irradiation with the highest UVB doses significantly decreased the intracellular GSH levels in both FF and AF, especially 24 h after exposure. This observation suggests that GSH was directly consumed as an antioxidant compound by irradiated cultured fibroblasts. However, depletion of GSH might disrupt many cellular functions and particularly reduce the capacity to scavenge ROS. In our study, GRed activity, which is responsible for the recycling of GSH stocks in the GSH redox system, remained constant in both irradiated and non-irradiated fibroblast cultures, and thus was not able to counter the decrease of GSH levels. It could thus be hypothesized that UVB, by lowering the level of GSH without changing the GRed activity, led to an imbalance of antioxidant defences, making cells unable to face up to oxidative processes and resulting in an increased cell death for high UVB doses. Moreover, the decreased GSH concentration in UVB irradiated cells could reflect an impairment of up-regulation of γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase, the rate-limiting enzyme of GSH synthesis [48]. Besides the fact that GSH protects cells by reacting directly with ROS, it also acts as a substrate for reducing enzymes such as GPx. Consequently the decrease in GSH content might be related to the observed increase of GPx activity, which was showed significant in AF submitted to the highest UVB dose compare to lower doses (2 and 20 mJ/cm2; data not shown). Thus this study showed that the glutathione redox system acts slightly differently in AF and FF.

It is well accepted that lipid peroxidation can be induced in cultured human skin fibroblasts by both UVA and UVB radiations [11]. In the present study we showed a significant enhancement of lipid peroxidation levels 2 h after 1000 mJ/cm2 UVB exposure, probably responsible for the loss of viability observed in cells 24 h after irradiation. In fact lipid peroxides might be involved in intracellular pathways which activate antioxidant or apoptotic mechanisms [49]. One GPx isoform, phospholipid hydroperoxyde peroxidase [50], could partly contribute to the low TBARS levels. So the increase of GPx activity in UVB-irradiated AF, 24 h after 1000 mJ/cm2, could explain in our experiments the return of TBARS to levels comparable to controls. Moreover the very low TBARS levels observed in irradiated FF compared to AF, could be explained by the higher SOD activity in FF, which scavenges a higher amount of cytotoxic O2•-. These results were in accordance with those of Shindo et al. [51].

Our data suggest that FF and AF, two cell populations coming respectively from foreskin of young donors and abdominal skin of adult donors, do not respond to UVB by the same pathways: in immature cells such as FF, the elevated activity of SOD results in a high generation of H2O2. This ROS would be scavenged by catalase in first line and GPx in second line, according to Masaki et al. [10, 52] and Shindo et al. [35].

To conclude, the present study showed that abdominal and foreskin human dermal fibroblasts are supplied with different basal antioxidant equipment which could explain their different behaviours towards UVB. Our results suggest that AF show a greater sensitivity to oxidative stress than FF, presumably because of a chronic exposure related to the way of life and age of the patients. That is why particular attention should be paid in the choice of the most relevant model for each study.
