Abstract

Skin photoaging induced by chronic ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure is primarily driven by oxidative stress. Emerging evidence suggests that ferroptosis contributes to UVB-induced skin damage. Sauchinone, a phenolic lignan derived from

Research summary

Sauchinone reduces UVB-induced photoaging by inhibiting oxidative stress and ferroptosis via the Keap1-Nrf2 pathway. The study addresses mechanisms of skin aging related to oxidative stress, which is a significant factor in the aging process.
