Red Ginseng Oil Attenuates Oxidative Stress and Offers Protection against Ultraviolet-Induced Photo Toxicity

Figure 6

Schematic model showing the role of red ginseng in oxidative damage. Free radicals, overdose of acetaminophen (APAP), and UV radiation lead to metabolic dysfunction, liver toxicity, and phototoxicity, causing damage to the antioxidant defense system. Red ginseng extract (RGE) and red ginseng oil (RGO) protect against reactive oxygen species (ROS) and APAP- and UV-induced oxidative damage.
