Abstract

Background. Niacinamide is a stable and water-soluble form of vitamin B3, a valuable and versatile cosmetic ingredient, which is well absorbed and tolerated by the skin. A large body of literature has reported on the antioxidant and cell repair properties of niacinamide. Therefore, it has been shown to be useful in the protection of the skin against ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation and free radicals. Despite numerous hypotheses on the mechanism of vitamin B3, its protective effects have not yet been fully elucidated.
Objectives. The aim of the study was to determine the protective effects of niacinamide on CHO AA8 cell line against UVB radiation. We assessed the following factors: cell death, cell cycle phase distributions, reorganization of main cytoskeletal proteins, such as F-actin, vimentin and β-tubulin, and also alterations at the ultrastructural level.
Material and Methods. The material used for our research was Chinese hamster ovary cell line (CHO AA8). We used 4 research groups: 1) control cells; 2) cells treated with niacinamide; 3) cells exposed to UV radiation; and 4) cells co-incubated with niacinamide and next exposed to ultraviolet. The cell death and cell cycle were evaluated by a Tali® based-image cytometer. A fluorescence microscope was used to assess the reorganization of cytoskeletal proteins, whereas a transmission electron microscope enabled the evaluation of the alterations at the ultrastructural level of cells.
Results. We showed that UV-induced apoptosis and cell cycle distributions during treatment with niacinamide resulted in a non-statistical significance in cell survival and no significant changes in the morphology and cytoskeleton in comparison to the control group. In turn, a combination of both factors led to an increase in the population of live cells and a decreased level of apoptotic cells in comparison to UV-exposed cells.
Conclusion. Our results confirmed the harmful effects of UV radiation on CHO AA8 cell line. Furthermore, niacinamide can protect cells against these factors, and the mechanism of action may be related to the stabilization of the cell cytoskeleton.
