Mirabilis Jalapa L. Protein as Inductor of Apoptosis on UVB-induced Skin Damage in Mice

Abstract: Background: Mirabilis jalapa L. protein (MJ-Protein) has been shown to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in vitro. Thus, it has a potential protective effect against ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced skin damage. Objective: To determine the protective effect and mechanism of MJ protein in UVB-radiation exposed mouse skin. Methods: In this experimentalstudy, 30 female BALB/c mice aged 6 weeks were exposed to a single dose of UVB irradiation with 3 minimal erythema doses (MEDs) and continued with the trea… Show more
