Bakuchiol and ethyl (linoleate/oleate) synergistically modulate endocannabinoid tone in keratinocytes and repress inflammatory pathway mRNAs


ABSTRACT: The endocannabinoid (eCB) system plays an active role in epidermal homeostasis. Phytocannabinoids such as CBD modulate this system but also act through eCB-independent mechanisms. This study evaluated effects of CBD, bakuchiol (BAK) and ethyl (linoleate/oleate) (ELN) in keratinocytes (KCs) and reconstituted human epidermis (RHE). Molecular docking simulations showed that each compound binds the active site of the eCB carrier fatty-acid-binding protein 5 (FABP5). However, BAK and ethyl linoleate bound this site with highest affinity when combined 1:1 (w/w) and in vitro assays showed that BAK+ELN most effectively inhibited FABP5 and fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). In TNF-stimulated KCs, BAK+ELN reversed TNF-induced expression shifts and uniquely down-regulated type I interferon genes and PTGS2 (COX-2). BAK+ELN also repressed expression of genes linked to KC differentiation but up-regulated those associated with proliferation. Finally, BAK+ELN inhibited cortisol secretion in RHE skin (not observed with CBD). These results support a model in which BAK and ELN synergistically interact to inhibit eCB degradation, favoring eCB mobilization and inhibition of downstream inflammatory mediators (e.g., TNF, COX-2, type I interferon). Topical combination of these ingredients may thus enhance cutaneous eCB tone or potentiate other modulators, suggesting new ways to modulate the eCB system for innovative skincare product development.
