Objectives: This study investigated the antithrombotic properties of a fibrinolytic enzyme (CFE) purified from the culture supernatant of Coprinus comatus using a zebrafish thrombosis model. Methods: A phenylhydrazine-induced thrombosis model was employed to evaluate the in vivo thrombolytic efficacy and mechanisms of CFE. Results: CFE significantly attenuated thrombogenesis by inhibiting erythrocyte aggregation in the caudal vessels, reducing staining intensity (3.61-fold decrease) and staining area (3.89-fold decrease). Concurrently, CFE enhanced cardiac hemodynamics, increasing erythrocyte staining intensity (9.29-fold) and staining area (5.55-fold) while achieving an 85.19% thrombosis inhibition rate. Behavioral analysis confirmed improved motility, with CFE-treated zebrafish exhibiting 2.23-fold increases in total movement distance and average speed, alongside a 3.59-fold extension in active movement duration. Mechanistically, ELISA revealed the multi-pathway activity of CFE, promoting fibrinolysis through reductions in plasminogen, fibrinogen, and D-dimer; inhibiting platelet activation via downregulation of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS), thromboxane A2 (TXA2), P-selectin, and von Willebrand factor (vWF); and modulating coagulation cascades through elevated protein C and tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) with concurrent suppression of coagulation factor VII (FVII). Conclusions: These results indicate that the fibrinolytic enzyme CFE, derived from Coprinus comatus, exerts potent antithrombotic effects, supporting its potential as a basis for fungal-derived natural antithrombotic functional food ingredients.

Antenatal inflammation/infection is a major cause of neonatal apnoea and hypoventilation. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE₂) is a key inflammatory mediator associated with depression of fetal and neonatal breathing. We aimed to determine whether antenatal ibuprofen, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor that reduces synthesis of PGE₂, restores fetal breathing movements (FBM) in late-gestation fetal sheep exposed to systemic lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Fetal sheep (125 days gestation, d; term ~148 d) were instrumentally monitored for continuous measurement of FBM and physiological parameters. At 130 d fetuses were randomly allocated between groups receiving i.v. saline (CTL_SAL, n = 9), escalating doses of LPS (i.v.) over 3 days (LPS_SAL, n = 8), or ibuprofen one hour after each LPS dose (LPS_IBU, n = 8). Regular plasma samples were collected for PGE₂ assessment. At 135 d, cerebrospinal fluid and brainstem tissue were collected at autopsy for assessments of PGE₂ expression, and immunohistochemical quantification of astrocytes and microglia within key brainstem respiratory centres was performed to assess inflammation. LPS exposure increased PGE₂ levels in plasma, cerebrospinal fluid and the RTN/pFRG (p < 0.05) and decreased the incidence, amplitude and amount of the accentuated (>5 mmHg) FBMs. Ibuprofen reduced plasma and RTN/pFRG PGE₂ expression (p < 0.01 and p = 0.031, respectively) but did not restore FBMs. Astrocyte and microglial density increased in the RTN/pFRG, NTS and raphe nucleus in LPS_IBU fetuses, compared to LPS_SAL (p < 0.05). Antenatal ibuprofen treatment did not restore depressed FBM, despite reducing the circulating and brainstem PGE₂ levels in LPS-exposed fetal sheep. Other inflammatory pathways or more specific targeting of PGE₂ may be more effective in preventing apnoea caused by exposure to intrauterine infection/inflammation. Full article

Background/Objectives: To evaluate the neuromodulative effects of oral intake of a fixed combination of citicoline 500 mg plus homotaurine 50 mg plus vitamin B3 54 mg plus pyrroloquinoline quinone (CIT/HOMO/B3/PPQ) or of citicoline 800 mg alone (CIT800) on retinal ganglion cell (RGC) function in glaucoma patients by pattern electroretinogram (PERG) and to investigate the effects on quality of life and visual function. Methods: Consecutive patients with primary open-angle glaucoma with controlled IOP (<18 mmHg) receiving prostaglandin analogues as monotherapy; with two reliable visual fields (Humphrey 24-2 SITA Standard) per year in the last 2 years; and an early to moderate visual field defect (MD < −12 dB) were randomized to: arm A. topical therapy + CIT/HOMO/B3/PPQ for 4 months, followed by 4 months of topical therapy + CIT800; and arm B. topical therapy + CIT800 for 4 months, then topical therapy + CIT/HOMO/B3/PPG for 4 months. Patients were examined at month 0, 4, and 8. Complete ocular examination, visual field test, PERG, and quality of life assessment (NEI-VFQ25) were performed at each visit. Results: Forty patients were selected and completed the study, and none developed or reported an adverse event. The overall mean age was 64.2 (±7.7) years, 27 were male. At the end of the intake period of both products, patients exhibited higher P50 and N95-wave amplitudes and shorter latencies compared to baseline. The crossover analysis found that PERG parameters were better when patients received the CIT/HOMO/B3/PQQ combination with a statistically significant shorter peak time of 1.24 ms (95% CI, 0.37 to 2.10; p = 0.006) in the central P50 wave, 1.32 ms (95% CI, 0.44 to 2.22; p = 0.004) in the inferior P50 wave, and 1.70 ms (95% CI, 0.09 to 3.31; p = 0.038) in the inferior N95 wave; and a statistically significant increase of 0.35 µV (95% CI, 0.10 to 0.60; p = 0.006) in the superior N95 amplitude. The crossover analysis did not reveal any significant differences between the intake of CIT800 and CIT/HOMO/B3/PQQ in terms of visual acuity or IOP. During the intake of CIT/HOMO/B3/PQQ, a significant improvement was observed in the total mean score (p = 0.004), in the general health scale (GH, p = 0.01), in the color vision scale (p = 0.006), and in the peripheral vision scale (p = 0.001). Conclusions: The present study has shown that the addition of CIT/HOMO/B3/PQQ in early glaucoma improves PERG parameters and quality of life, likely by slowing down RGC aging and enhancing mitochondrial function more significantly than citicoline 800 mg alone.

Identifying the specific factors secreted during early pregnancy is an effective method for pregnancy detection in cattle, helping to reduce empty pregnancies in the industry. To systematically investigate metabolic variations between early pregnancy and the estrous cycle and their relationship with pregnancy progression, this study utilized four-dimensional data-independent acquisition (4D-DIA) proteomics and liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) metabolomics to analyze serum samples collected from Chinese native yellow cattle at day 0 and day 21 post-mating, combining bioinformatics analysis with experimental validation. The platelet activation signaling pathway and angiogenesis-related proteins were significantly upregulated. Among them, fibrinogen alpha/beta/gamma chains (FG) exhibited notable differences, with their branched-chain protein FGB showing highly significant upregulation (p = 0.003, Log₂FC = 2.167) and tending to increase gradually during early pregnancy, suggesting that FGB could be one of the important indicators of early pregnancy in Chinese native yellow cattle. Among the differential metabolites, 11-Deoxy prostaglandin F1α (p < 0.001, Log₂FC = 1.563), Thromboxane B1 (p = 0.002, Log₂FC = 3.335), and Homo-Gamma-Linolenic Acid (C20:3) (p = 0.018, Log₂FC = 1.781) were also increased, indicating their involvement in the regulation of the platelet activation signaling pathway. The platelet activation signaling pathway plays a crucial role in maternal immune tolerance and placental vascularization, which are essential for embryo implantation and placental development. These findings indicate that FGB has the potential to be a valuable biomarker for early cattle pregnancy detection, thereby improving pregnancy diagnosis accuracy, reducing economic losses caused by undetected empty pregnancies and enhancing reproductive efficiency in the cattle industry. Undoubtedly, our research outcomes must be validated with future studies, and a larger sample size as well as the evaluation of the potential endocrine effects induced by the synchronized estrus treatment must be considered.

30 percent of infertile men are diagnosed with idiopathic infertility. This study aimed to assess oxidative stress in the semen of 77 patients with idiopathic infertility by measuring F₂-isoprostane (F₂-IsoP), resolvin D1 (RvD1) levels, and semen parameters. The presence and localization of 8-IsoProstaglandin F_2α were determined using immunofluorescence. No significant correlations were observed for F₂-IsoP and RvD1 levels with the semen variables. Based on F₂-IsoP levels, individuals were classified into two groups: Group 1 (F₂-IsoPs ≤ 29.96 ng/mL, 51%) and Group 2 (F₂-IsoPs > 29.96 ng/mL, 49%). In comparison to Group 1, Group 2 showed significantly higher F₂-IsoP levels (13.33 ng/mL vs. 44.80 ng/mL; p < 0.05), a lower progressive motility percentage (30% vs. 25%; p < 0.05), and increased RvD1 levels (36.09% vs. 44.94%). Immunofluorescence analysis revealed a different localization of 8-IsoProstaglandin F_2α in the ejaculated sperm of Group 1 compared to that observed in Group 2. A weak signal was detected in the sperm tail (Group 1, 79.1% vs. Group 2, 36.9; p < 0.01). In spermatozoa of Group 2 patients, a strong signal in the acrosome, midpiece, and tail was highlighted. These findings suggest the need to test oxidative stress during routine semen analysis in patients with idiopathic infertility to improve diagnosis and treatment. Full article

Background/Objectives: To analyze the genotype that predicts the phenotypic characteristics of a cohort of patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension (OHT) and explore their influence on the response to ocular hypotensive treatment. Methods: This was a prospective study that included 193 eyes of 109 patients with glaucoma or OHT under monotherapy with beta-blockers, prostaglandin, or prostamide analogues (BBs, PGAs, PDs). Eight single-nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped using real-time PCR assays: prostaglandin-F2α receptor (PTGFR) (rs3766355, rs3753380); beta-2-adrenergic receptor (ADRB2) (rs1042714); and cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) (*2 rs16947; *35 rs769258; *4 rs3892097; *9 rs5030656, and *41 rs28371725). The main variables studied were baseline (bIOP), treated (tIOP), and rate of variation in intraocular pressure (vIOP), and mean deviation of the visual field (MD). The metabolizer phenotype and the CYP2D6 copy number variation were also evaluated. Results: In total, 112 eyes were treated with PGAs (58.0%), 59 with BBs (30.6%), and 22 with PDs (11.4%). For PTGFR (rs3753380), statistically significant differences were observed in vIOP in the PGA group (p = 0.032). Differences were also observed for ADRB2 (rs1042714) in MD (p < 0.001) and vIOP (p = 0.017). For CYP2D6, ultrarapid metabolizers exhibited higher tIOP (p = 0.010) and lower vIOP (p = 0.046) compared to the intermediate and poor metabolizers of the BB group. Additionally, systemic treatment metabolized by CYP2D6 showed a significant influence on vIOP (p = 0.019) in this group. Conclusions: These preliminary findings suggest the future potential of pharmacogenetic-based treatments in glaucoma to achieve personalized treatment for each patient, and thus optimal clinical management.

Obesity affects female reproductive performance by impairing the ovarian and uterine environments. Using a diet-induced obesity mouse model, we examined whether a high-fat diet (HFD) regimen affects the gene expression profile in ovarian granulosa cells (GCs) and whether short-term HFD has similar effects on gene expression as long-term HFD. C57BL/6J mice were fed a HFD or normal diet (ND) for 16–18 weeks (long-term group) or 4 weeks (short-term group). GCs were collected from each group of mice for RNA-sequencing. RT-PCR and immunofluorescence staining were performed to validate the results. RNA-sequencing analyses of the GCs revealed that several immediate early genes, including early growth response 1 (Egr1), an important mediator of ovulation, were significantly downregulated in HFD GCs. Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C (Ptprc) and hematopoietic type prostaglandin D synthase (Hpgds), both of which are associated with increased inflammation, were significantly upregulated in HFD GCs. Downregulation of Egr1 was also confirmed in the GCs of short-term HFD mice, suggesting that it constitutes an early change in response to a HFD. Increased expression of several transcription factors in HFD GCs suggests that a HFD may affect the overall transcriptional landscape. The results may indicate possible modulation of the immune environment in HFD ovaries. These results provide novel insights into the molecular changes in GCs in obese environments. Full article

Valerian possesses a multitude of pharmacological effects, including sedative and hypnotic properties, antihypertensive effects, antibacterial activity, and liver protection. Insomnia, one of the most prevalent disorders in contemporary society, significantly impacts people’s daily lives. This study aims to explore the anti-insomnia effects of valerian volatile oil (VVO) and investigate its potential mechanism of action through chemical analysis, network pharmacology, molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulations, and experimental validation. Through gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis and drug-likeness screening, we identified 38 active compounds. Network pharmacology studies revealed that these 38 compounds might affect 103 targets associated with insomnia, such as monoamine oxidase B (MAOB), dopamine receptor D2 (DRD2), monoamine oxidase A (MAOA), interleukin 1β (IL1B), solute carrier family 6 member 4 (SLC6A4), prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2), and 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 2A (HTR2A), which contribute to regulating the neuroactive ligand–receptor interaction, 5-hydroxytryptaminergic synapse, and calcium signaling pathways. The results of the molecular dynamics simulations indicated that bis[(6,6-dimethyl-3-bicyclo[3.1.1]hept-2-enyl)methyl] (E)-but-2-enedioate exhibited a stabilizing interaction with MAOB. The animal studies demonstrated that gavage administration of a high dose (100 mg/kg) of VVO significantly diminished autonomous activity, decreased sleep latency, and extended sleep duration in mice. Furthermore, the results of the Western blot experiment indicated that VVO interacts with MAOB, resulting in decreased expression levels of MAOB in the cerebral cortex. This study demonstrates the protective mechanism of VVO against insomnia through chemical analysis, network pharmacology, and experimental validation and extends the possible applications of VVO, which is a potential therapeutic ingredient for use in insomnia treatment.

Farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a nuclear receptor, is expressed in calvaria and bone marrow stromal cells and plays a role in bone homeostasis. However, the mechanism of FXR-activated osteoblast differentiation remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the regulatory mechanism underlying FXR-activated osteoblast differentiation using bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2)-induced mouse ST-2 mesenchymal stem cells. We also synthesized a novel FXR agonist, FLG390, and compared its biological effects in osteoblast differentiation with a known FXR agonist, chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA). As an FXR agonist, FLG390 accelerated osteoblast differentiation to a comparable extent with CDCA, enhancing alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and the expression of osteoblast differentiated-related genes such as ALP, collagen type 1 α1 chain (COL1A1), and runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2). FXR activation elevated the expression of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 and the production of prostaglandin (PG) E₂ in the early phase of osteoblast differentiation. A selective COX-2 inhibitor and an antagonist of EP4 receptors, one of PGE₂ receptors, partially suppressed FXR-activated osteoblast differentiation. Moreover, treatment with either inhibitor during the first 6 h after initiating osteoblast differentiation repressed FXR-activated osteoblast differentiation to the same extent as did the treatment for 6 d. Therefore, a novel FXR agonist, FLG390, exhibited potency comparable to CDCA. FXR activation promoted the early phase of osteoblast differentiation via the COX-2-PGE₂-EP4 axis, representing a potential target for control of bone metabolism. Full article

The urothelium and lamina propria (LP) contribute to sensations of bladder fullness by releasing multiple mediators, including prostaglandins (PGs) and adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP), that activate or modulate functions of cells throughout the bladder wall. Mediators that are simultaneously released in response to bladder distention likely influence each other’s mechanisms of release and action. This study investigated whether PGs could alter the extracellular hydrolysis of ATP by soluble nucleotidases (s-NTDs) released in the LP of nondistended or distended bladders. Using an ex vivo murine detrusor-free bladder model to access the LP during bladder filling and a sensitive HPLC-FLD detection methodology, we evaluated the decrease in ATP and the increase in adenosine 5′-diphosphate (ADP), adenosine 5′-monophosphate (AMP), and adenosine by s-NTDs released in the LP. Endogenous PGE₂ increased the spontaneous but not the distention-induced release of s-NTD via EP2 and EP3 prostanoid receptors, whereas exogenous PGE₂ increased the spontaneous s-NTD release via EP3, EP4, and FP receptors and the distention-induced s-NTD release via EP1-4 and FP receptors. Endogenous PGF_2α, PGD₂, and PGI₂ did not change the s-NTD release. Exogenous PGD₂ increased the spontaneous s-NTD release via DP2 receptors and the distention-induced s-NTD release via DP1 and DP2 receptors. Exogenous PGF_2α increased the spontaneous but not the distention-induced release of s-NTD via FP receptors. It is possible that higher concentrations of PGE₂, PGF_2α, and PGD₂ (as expected in inflammation, bladder pain syndrome, or overactive bladder) potentiate the release of s-NTDs and the consecutive degradation of ATP as a safeguard mechanism to prevent the development of excessive bladder excitability and overactivity by high amounts of extracellular ATP.

Uterine infections reduce ruminant reproductive efficiency. Reproductive dysfunction caused by infusion of Gram-negative bacteria is characterized by the failure of embryo implantation and reduced conception rates. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a major component of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, is highly abortogenic. In this study, the effects of LPS infusion on the endometrial receptivity of sheep were studied during three critical periods of embryo implantation. The results showed that LPS infusion on d12, d16, and d20 of pregnancy in vivo interfered with the expression of prostaglandins (PGs) and affected the expression of adhesion-related factors (ITGB1/3/5, SPP1), key implantation genes (HOXA10, HOXA11 and LIF), and progestational elongation genes (ISG15, RSAD2 and CXCL10) during embryo implantation. In addition, after LPS infusion on d12, d16, and d20, the phosphorylation level of STAT1 significantly decreased and the protein expression level of IRF9 significantly increased on d12, suggesting that LPS infusion in sheep impairs endometrial receptivity through the JAK2/STAT1 pathway. Sheep endometrial epithelial cells were treated with 17 β-estrogen, progesterone, and/or interferon-tau in vitro to mimic the receptivity of the endometrium during early pregnancy for validation. LPS and the p-STAT1 inhibitor fludarabine were both added to the model, which resulted in reduced p-STAT1 protein expression, significant inhibition of PGE2/PGF2α, and significant suppression of the expression of key embryo implantation genes. Collectively, these results indicate that LPS infusion in sheep on d12, d16, and d20 impairs endometrial receptivity through the JAK2/STAT1 pathway, which is responsible for LPS-associated pregnancy failure.

In patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), there is disparate regulation of prostaglandin E2 (PGE₂) and prostaglandin D₂ (PGD₂). Both prostanoids are synthesised by cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2). However, while the basal synthesis of PGE₂ tends to decrease, that of PGD₂ increases in patients with AERD. Furthermore, both behave differently in response to the inhibitory action of NSAIDs on COX-1: PGE₂ levels decrease while PGD₂ increases. Increased PGD₂ release correlates with nasal, bronchial, and extra-pulmonary symptoms caused by aspirin in AERD. The proposed hypothesis establishes that the answer to this paradoxical dissociation can be found in the airway epithelium. This is based on the observation that reduced COX-2 mRNA and/or protein expression is associated with reduced PGE₂ synthesis in cultured fibroblast and epithelial cells from AERD compared to patients with asthma who are aspirin-tolerant and healthy subjects. The low production of PGE₂ by the airway epithelium in AERD results in an excessive release of alarmins (TSLP, IL-33), which in turn contributes to activating group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) and PGD₂ synthesis by mast cells and eosinophils. Aspirin, by further increasing the diminished PGE₂ regulation capacity in AERD, leads to respiratory reactions associated with the surge in PGD₂ from mast cells and eosinophils. In summary, the downregulation of COX-2 and the subsequent low production of PGE₂ by airway cells account for the apparently paradoxical increased production of PGD₂ by mast cells and eosinophils at the baseline and after aspirin provocation in patients with AERD. A better understanding of the role of the airway epithelium would contribute to elucidating the mechanism of AERD. Full article

Light alcohol consumption (LAC) may reduce the incidence and improve the prognosis of ischemic stroke. Recently, we found that LAC promotes cerebral angiogenesis and inhibits early inflammation following ischemic stroke. In addition, LAC upregulates lipocalin-type prostaglandin D2 synthase (L-PGDS) in the brain. Thus, we determined the role of endothelial L-PGDS in the protective effect of LAC. In in vitro studies, chronic exposure to low-concentration ethanol upregulated L-PGDS and significantly increased the proliferation in cultured C57BL/6J mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells (MBMVECs). AT-56, a selective L-PGDS inhibitor, abolished low-concentration ethanol exposure-induced proliferation. In in vivo studies, 8-week gavage feeding with 0.7 g/kg/day ethanol, defined as LAC, promoted cerebral angiogenesis under physiological conditions and following ischemic stroke in male C57BL/6J mice. In addition, LAC inhibited the post-ischemic expression of adhesion molecules, neutrophil infiltration, and microglial activation. AT-56 and endothelial cell (EC)-specific L-PGDS conditional knockout did not significantly alter cerebral angiogenesis and post-ischemic inflammation in the control mice but eliminated the pro-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects of LAC. Furthermore, EC-specific L-PGDS conditional knockout alleviated the neuroprotective effect of LAC against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. These findings suggest that endothelial L-PGDS may be crucial in the pro-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects of LAC against ischemic stroke. Full article

An essential oil dominated by germacrene D (19.3% by GC) was isolated from the fresh fruit of Amorpha fruticosa L. (Fabaceae). Agglomerative clustering and k-means clustering were employed to compare the composition of the oil with the existing literature data, suggesting that the A. fruticosa used in this study represents a new chemotype. The essential oil was evaluated for its antinociceptive activity using the acetic acid-induced writhing test in rats at doses of 400, 200, and 100 mg/kg. All tested doses reduced the number of writhes induced by the intraperitoneal injection of acetic acid. The 400 mg/kg dose of the oil demonstrated a 54.4% inhibition, which was statistically different from the positive control, aspirin, which showed 90.2% inhibition at a dose of 200 mg/kg. Since the injection of acetic acid produces the release of prostaglandins, such as PGE2α and PGF2α, as well as sympathetic nervous system mediators in peritoneal fluids, the results suggest that the inhibition of prostaglandin release might represent one of the possible mechanisms of action exerted by the oil.

Phospholipids and their metabolites play an important role in maintaining the membrane integrity and the metabolic functions of keratinocytes under physiological conditions and in the regeneration process after exposure to high-energy UVB radiation. Therefore, in the search for compounds with a protective and regenerative effect on keratinocyte phospholipids, the effectiveness of two antioxidant compounds has been tested: a stable derivative of ascorbic acid, 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid (EAA) and cannabigerol (CBG), both of which are primarily located in the membrane structures of keratinocytes. In addition, this study has demonstrated that EAA and CBG, especially in a two-component combination, enhance the antioxidant properties of keratinocytes and reduce lipid peroxidation assessed at the level of MDA (malondialdehyde)/neuroprostanes. Moreover, by reducing the activity of enzymes that metabolise phospholipids, free PUFAs (polyunsaturated fatty acids) and endocannabinoids (PLA2; phospholipase A2, COX1/2; cyclooxygenases 1/2, LOX-5; lipoxygenase 5, FAAH; fatty acid amide hydrolase, MAGL; monoacylglycerol lipase), antioxidants have been found to regulate the levels of endocannabinoids (AEA; anandamide, 2-AG; 2-arachidonoylglycerol, PEA; palmitoylethanolamide) and eicosanoids (PGD2; prostaglandin D2, PGE2; prostaglandin E2, 15-d-PGJ2; 15-deoxy-Δ12,14-prostaglandin J2, 15-HETE; 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid), that are enhanced by UVB radiation. The metabolic effect of both groups of PUFA metabolites is mainly related to the activation of G protein-related receptors (CB1/2; cannabinoid receptor 1 and 2, PPARγ; peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, TRPV1; transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1), the expression of which is reduced under the influence of EAA, CBG, and especially the two-component combination. It promotes the regeneration of keratinocyte metabolism disrupted by UVB, particularly in relation to redox balance and inflammation. Full article
