Involvement of microRNAs in epigallocatechin gallate-mediated UVB protection in human dermal fibroblasts
The green tea polyphenol epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a potent anti-oxidant and anticancer compound. Recently, EGCG-mediated UVB photoprotection was reported in normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs); however, the molecular mechanism underlying this process remains unknown. Thus, we investi...

Zusammenfassung: | The green tea polyphenol epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a potent anti-oxidant and anticancer compound. Recently, EGCG-mediated UVB photoprotection was reported in normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs); however, the molecular mechanism underlying this process remains unknown. Thus, we investigated the EGCG-specific microRNAs (miRNAs) involved in the UVB protective response in NHDFs. WST-1 assays confirmed that low doses ( |
