Nectandra cuspidata fraction and the isolated polyphenols protect fibroblasts and hairless mice skin from UVB-induced inflammation and oxidative stress

Excessive exposure to UVB radiation can lead to oxidative and inflammatory damage that compromises the cutaneous integrity. The application on the skin of photochemoprotective products is considered a relevant approach for the prevention of oxidative damage. In this study the in vitro and in vivo photochemoprotective effects of antioxidant plant materials obtained from the leaves of Nectandra cuspidata Nees following UVB irradiation were...
