Echinacoside Alleviates UVB Irradiation‐Mediated Skin Damage via Inhibition of Oxidative Stress, DNA Damage, and Apoptosis

Ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation has been known to cause skin damage, which is associated with oxidative stress, DNA damage, and apoptosis. Echinacoside is a phenylethanoid glycoside isolated from Herba Cistanches , which exhibits strong antioxidant activity. In this study, we evaluate the photopr…
