Abstract
Skin dryness associated with type 2 diabetes worsens with age; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Herein, we investigated the effects of aging on skin dryness using a type 2 diabetes mice model. Specific pathogen-free KK-Ay/TaJcl mice of different ages (10, 27, 40, and 50 weeks) were used in this study. The results confirmed that skin dryness worsens with age. Furthermore, increased levels of advanced glycation end products (AGE), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, along with an increased expression of the major AGE receptor (RAGE), an increased macrophage number, and decreased collagen expression were observed in the skin of aged KK-Ay/TaJcl mice. In conclusion, dry skin conditions worsen with age in diabetic mice, and the AGE/RAGE/PGE2 and TNF-α pathways play an important role in exacerbating skin dryness during aging in these mice.
