Anti-Atopic Dermatitis Effect of Seaweed Fulvescens Extract via Inhibiting the STAT1 Pathway

Figure 1

Effects of SF on Df-induced AD-like skin lesions in NC/Nga mice. (a) Schematic depiction of the development of SDS/Df-induced AD and treatment with SF. (b) Representative photographs of the dorsal regions of mice from each group at 29 days after AD induction and treatment with SF. CON: control mouse group, Df: Df-induced atopic dermatitis (AD) NC/Nga mice, and SF: seaweed fulvescens (SF) extract-treated AD mice. (c) Dermatitis scores for 4 weeks. Dermatitis score were determined as the sum of scores graded as 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate), or 3 (severe) for each of the four symptoms (erythema/hemorrhage, scarring/dryness, edema, and excoriation/erosion). Data are expressed as the deviation (SD; ). Data were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance followed by Dunnett’s post hoc test. and versus the Df group; versus the control group.
