Photoprotective Activity of Cell Culture Methanolic Extract on UVB-irradiated 3T3-Swiss Albino Fibroblasts.

The research on compounds exhibiting photoprotection against ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is a matter of increasing interest. The methanolic extract of a cell culture of has potential photoprotective effects as these cells produce phenolic secondary metabolites (SMs). These metabolites are attributed with biological activities capable of counteracting the harmful effects caused by UVR on skin.
