Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of Camellia sinensis L. extract as a potential therapeutic for atopic dermatitis through NF-κB pathway inhibition.

ABSTRACT: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by immune dysregulation and excessive cytokine production. This study aimed to explore the potential of Camellia sinensis L. water extract (CSE) as a treatment for AD by the impact of CSE on inflammatory responses in keratinocytes, particularly concerning the production of inflammatory cytokines and the modulation of signaling pathways relevant to AD pathogenesis. CSE was obtained via hot water extraction from Camellia sinensis L. Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) analyzed catechin and caffeine content. Cell viability was assessed with 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), polyphenol and flavonoid content were determined. 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay mea
