The invention relates to the technical field of biological active peptides, in particular to a method for rapidly and effectively screening light protection active peptides from collagen
hydrolysate. The invention relates to an application of a photoprotective polypeptide in preparation of a product. The product has at least one of the following purposes: (1) maintaining or increasing the
water content of
skin; (2) preventing and / or slowing down
skin aging; (3) prevention and / or alleviation of
skin UVB injury; and (4) promoting healing of skin wounds or wound surfaces. Two key
signal factors (NF-kB, AP-1) and a key
matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9) are screened from a mitogen-activated
protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) pathway to be used as docking targets, and a mimic
peptide and the three targets act synergistically to make up for the defect that a single target screening
peptide is difficult to comprehensively cope with a
light damage multivariate pathway, so that the application of the mimic
peptide to the
light damage multivariate pathway is realized, and the application of the mimic peptide to the
light damage multivariate pathway is realized. And the
collagen peptide with excellent light protection activity is obtained through screening.
