Solar Ultraviolet Irradiation Induces Decorin Degradation in Human Skin Likely via Neutrophil Elastase

Exposure of human skin to solar ultraviolet (UV) irradiation induces matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) activity, which degrades type I collagen fibrils. Type I collagen is the most abundant protein in skin and constitutes the majority of skin connective tissue (dermis). Degradation of collagen fibr...
