Lycium barbarum polysaccharide protects HSF cells against ultraviolet-induced damage through the activation of Nrf2

Abstract Background Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) is considered an antioxidant agent. NF-E2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) is an important regulator for protection against UV damage. In this study, we verified the performance of LBP and the correlation between LBP and Nrf2. Methods HSF cells were tr...
