Neonauclea reticulata (Havil.) Merr Stimulates Skin Regeneration after UVB Exposure via ROS Scavenging and Modulation of the MAPK/MMPs/Collagen Pathway

Figure 5

Effects of Neonauclea reticulata extract on UVB-induced expression of MMP-1, -3, and -9 and type I procollagen in human foreskin fibroblasts. Expression of MMPs increased and that of type I procollagen decreased after UVB irradiation. Neonauclea reticulata extract (5–50 μg/mL) treatment attenuated this effect.
