The paper titled "Recent insights into catechins‑rich Assam tea extract for photoaging and senescent ageing" was published on January 26, 2024, in the open-access journal Scientific Reports, under the Nature Publishing Group. The authors, Mayuree Kanlayavattanakul, Mattaka Khongkow, Wannita Klinngam, Puxvadee Chaikul, Nattaya Lourith, and Piyaporn Chueamchaitrakun, are from Mae Fah Luang University and the National Nanotechnology Center (NANOTEC) in Thailand. This study systematically evaluated the antioxidant, anti-photoaging, and anti-aging activities of Assam tea extract (ATE) through in vitro and ex vivo experiments, confirming ATE's potential as a novel anti-aging product. The research showed that ATE not only exhibits excellent antioxidant activity but also significantly reduces UV-induced inflammation and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity. These findings suggest that ATE can be applied as an innovative anti-aging agent in cosmetics and health promotion products.
