Figure 3
Analysis for density of collagen fibers in dorsal skin of TEA-treated mice against UVB-induced skin damage. (a) Masson’s trichrome staining and (b) its histogram estimated for relative collagen density. TEA treatment significantly prevented UVB induced loss of collagen fibers. versus normal mice. Scale bars = 200 μm. Nor, normal; TEA, thread embedding acupuncture; UV, ultraviolet B.
