by measuring the oxidation of H2-DCFDA (2’,7’-dichlorodihydrofluorescin diacetate). H2- DCFDA diffuses through the cell membrane and is enzymatically hydrolysed by intracellular esterase to the non-fluorescent H2-DCF. Intracellular ROS are able to oxidise H2-DCF to the fluorescent 2′-7′-dichlorofluorescein (DCF), whose intensity of fluorescence is directly proportional to the levels of intracellular ROS. Fluorescence was measured with a


spectrofluorometer at excitation/emission wavelengths of 480 nm-535 nm and the signals were compared to the untreated control.


Results


LED-BL exposed keratinocytes and fibroblasts exhibited increased fluorescence compared with non-exposed control cells, with a ROS production more than four and three times higher, respectively, than control (Fig 4a, b).


LED-BL exposed keratinocytes, pre-


treated with 10, 25 and 50 μg/ml of olive fruit extract, showed a minor level of ROS with a reduction from 25 to 50% (comparison with the blue light control) (Fig 4a). Decrease of ROS expression in

fibroblasts, pre-treated with 10, 25, 50 and 100 μg/ml of olive fruit extract, ranged from 58,5 to 66,36% (Fig 4b). These results clearly showed the


remarkable radical scavenging property of olive fruit extract, and its capability to protect skin cells from blue light-induced oxidative stress.


Effect of olive fruit extract on blue light-induced DNA damage


8-OHdG and PCNA evaluation by Western Blot


Design


8-OHdG and PCNA were quantified through specific antibodies, which were detected using a chemiluminescent system. The signal intensity of the bands was calculated on the basis of the density of the α-tubulin and the values were expressed as arbitrary densitometric unit (ADU).


Results


Cellular DNA damage, induced by LED-BL, was highlighted by Western Blot with an increased expression of PCNA and ex novo


synthesis of 8-OHdG in both cell lines (Fig 5a, b). Western Blot analysis showed that, in keratinocytes, pre-treated with olive fruit extract, the expression of PCNA decreases in a concentration-dependent manner, whereas 8-OHdG disappears (Fig 5a). A comparable behaviour was highlighted in fibroblasts, where the level of PCNA decreases and the expression of 8- OHdG was completely suppressed (Fig 5b).


8-OHdG and PCNA evaluation by immunocytochemistry Design


The markers of DNA damage were also evaluated with a qualitative technique. In order to visualise the expression of 8-OHdG and PCNA, keratinocytes and fibroblasts were stained with antibodies against PCNA and 8-OHdG, green and red respectively (Figs 6a, b; Fig 7a, b). The nuclei of cells were counterstained with 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), a blue colorant. Digital images were acquired using Leica fluorescence microscope connected to a digital camera. Magnification ×40.
