Skin aging

downin humans1

1 study
  1. Moringa oleifera decreases skin aging in humans.

    “Açai berries, Moringa oleifera, and spirulina are just some of the emerging nutrients that counteract skin aging because of their potent antioxidant properties.”

NRF2–KEAP1 antioxidant response

upin worms1

1 study
  1. Moringa oleifera activates NRF2–KEAP1 antioxidant response in worms.

    “MSE and MIC-1 upregulate skn-1 expression and induce SKN-1 nuclear translocation, suggesting that they activate the SKN-1/Nrf2 pathway.”

Oxidative stress and ROS signalling

downin rats1

1 study
  1. Moringa oleifera decreases oxidative stress and ROS signalling in rats.

    “Interestingly, MOI treatment normalized oxidative stress enhanced in MAWRs, in both the heart and aorta.”

FOXO1

downin rats1

1 study
  1. Moringa oleifera decreases FOXO1 in rats.

    “FOXO1 expression increased in the nuclei of MAWR aortas compared to YWR and was reversed in MOI MAWRs.”

Sirtuin signalling

upin rats1

1 study
  1. Moringa oleifera activates sirtuin signalling in rats.

    “These results demonstrate the protective role of MOI against cardiovascular dysfunction due to aging via enhanced SIRT1 function”

SIRT1

upin rats1

1 study
  1. Moringa oleifera increases SIRT1 in rats.

    “SIRT1 expression, reduced in MAWRs compared to YWRs, was enhanced in MOI MAWRs.”
