Penta-<i>O</i>-galloyl-β-D-glucose (PGG) is a gallotannin polyphenolic compound that occurs naturally in fermented <i>Rhus</i> <i>verniciflua</i>. The present study aimed to examine the effect of PGG on UVB-induced skin aging and its molecular mechanisms in HaCaT human keratinocytes and SKH-1 hairless mice models. PGG suppressed UVB-induced matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) expression in HaCaT cells by inhibiting phosphorylation of RAF/MEK/ERK, MKK3/6/p38, and c-Jun. UVB-induced ERK and p38 sig ...[more]
