Background/Objectives:  Free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are generated by UV irradiation, may induce an irreversible growth arrest similar to senescence. Tiron (cas 149-45-1), 4,5‐dihydroxy‐1,3‐benzene disulfonic acid, is a widely used antioxidant to rescue ROS‐evoked cell death. The aim of the article was to explore the effects of tiron on skin photoaging and associated mechanisms. Methods:  The effects of tiron on cell proliferation were determined using 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐Yl)‐2,5‐diphenyltetrazolium bromide. Senescent cells were determined by morphology and senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase activity analysis. Intracellular hydrogen peroxide, superoxide anion and glutathione concentration were analysed by a fluorescent probe. The concomitant changes of protein expression were analysed with Western blot. Results:  Human dermal fibroblasts were induced to premature senescence by sub‐cytotoxic doses of irradiated UVB. Strong senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase activity and increased intracellular superoxide anion were observed in human dermal fibroblasts irradiated by UVB. Tiron blocks UVB‐induced glutathione depletion and increase of superoxide anion and protects against UVB‐induced senescence‐like characteristics in human dermal fibroblasts. Compared with normal fibroblasts, UVB‐irradiated human dermal fibroblasts showed a higher ratio of active (hypophosphorylated) to inactive (phosphorylated) forms of Rb and p38, upregulation of p53 or p16 and c‐Myc and insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1) downregulation. After treatment with tiron, p53, p16 c‐Myc and IGF‐1 as well as phosphorylation Rb and p38 could partially recover. Conclusion:  These results indicate that tiron protects against UVB‐induced senescence‐like characteristics in human dermal fibroblasts via the inhibition of production of superoxide anion and glutathione depletion, and modulation of related senescence proteins.
