From: Ginsenoside CK and retinol on UVA-induced photoaging exert the synergistic effect through antioxidant and antiapoptotic mechanisms

The combination formulation of retinol and CK alleviates the oxidative stress level of photoaged cells. (A–C) Flow cytometry was used to detect the effects of CK and retinol on ROS. HaCaT cells were treated with CK (0.001, 0.005, 0.01 mg/mL) with or without VA (0.01 mg/mL), HPR (0.05 mg/mL) or VAPA (0.1 mg/mL) for 24 h. And then fluorescent probe DCFH-DA was used to detect ROS. Quantification charts were listed on (D). (E–G) UVA-irradiated human HaCaT cells were treated with CK with and without VA, HPR or VAPA. The quantitative analysis of MDA (E), CAT (F) and SOD (G). **P < 0.01 versus UVA treatment group. #P < 0.05, ##P < 0.01 versus VA/HPR/VAPA alone treatment group.
