A Novel Antioxidant Peptide Cath‐Np Derived from Nanorana parkeri Attenuates UVB‐Induced Skin Photodamage in Mice

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of Cath‐Np as an antioxidant suppressing acute skin damage caused by ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation in mice. Cath‐Np inhibits the activation of p53 and mitogen‐activated protein kinase pathways while it activates the Nrf2 pathway by its strong antioxidant effects, and accordingly suppresses the expression of inflammatory factors
