Within the dermis, a dense network of ECM proteins provides structural support to the skin and regulates a wide variety of signaling pathways which govern cell proliferation and other critical processes. Both intrinsic aging, which occurs steadily over time, and extrinsic aging (photoaging), which occurs as a result of external insults such as solar radiation, cause alterations to the dermal ECM. In this study, we utilized both quantitative and global proteomics, alongside single harmonic generation (SHG) and two-photon autofluorescence (TPAF) imaging, to assess changes in dermal composition during intrinsic and extrinsic aging. We find that both intrinsic and extrinsic aging result in significant decreases in ECM-supporting proteoglycans and structural ECM integrity, evidenced by decreasing collagen abundance and increasing fibril fragmentation. Intrinsic aging also produces changes distinct from those produced by photoaging, including reductions in elastic fiber and crosslinking enzyme abundance. In contrast, photoaging is primarily defined by increases in elastic fiber-associated protein and pro-inflammatory proteases. Changes associated with photoaging are evident even in young (mid 20s) sun-exposed forearm skin, indicating that proteomic evidence of photoaging is present decades prior to clinical signs of photoaging. GO term enrichment revealed that both intrinsic aging and photoaging share common features of chronic inflammation.
