Potential of Plant Stem Cells As Helpful Agents for Skin Disorders—A Narrative Review

Recently, cellular senescence has been of great interest due to its pleiotropic nature and association with both physiological (e.g., aging) and pathological conditions. Excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) can induce inflammation, which accelerates skin aging (also premature aging) and may cause several dermatoses. It has been postulated that plant-derived antioxidants, especially plant stem cells, may prevent cell damage by preserving stemness and reducing cellular senescence by ROS targeting. Therefore, this paper aims to review and summarize recent developments and innovative techniques associated with plant-derived stem cells in relation to skin senescence. This review also presents the possible pathways involved in this process. Particular attention was paid to the potential applications of plant stem cells as senostatics/senomorphics produced by modern plant biotechnology methods. Furthermore, the advantages, limitations, and future directions of this technology are also discussed. This knowledge allows the development of personalized strategies to create a healthy balance in skin care. Plant stem cells could be a more feasible and practical approach to combating the adverse effects of skin senescence processes.
