Coenzyme Q10 Sunscreen Prevents Progression of Ultraviolet-Induced Skin Damage in Mice

Figure 4

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) sunscreen restored collagen degradation in ultraviolet B radiation- (UVB-) treated skin. Van Gieson staining was used to detect collagen on the skin. The picture was captured at 10x magnification using an electron microscope. CON: control group without exposing to UVB; MOD; model group with ointment base exposed to UVB; CoQ10: treatment with CoQ10 sunscreen exposed to UVB; TiO2: positive control with titanium dioxide (TiO2) sunscreen exposed to UVB.
