uv-induced

Odoriflavene has antioxidant activity, and it also shows inhibition effects on the decrease of glutathione level of rat lens induced by UV irradiation. Odoriflavene shows cytotoxic activity against a SH-SY5Y cell line in vitro.

Eupalinolide B is a natural product ,and demonstrates potent cytotoxicity against A-549, BGC-823, SMMC-7721, and HL-60 tumour cell lines.

Afzelin (Kaempferol-3-O-rhamnoside) has several cellular activities such as DNA-protective, antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory as well as UV-absorbing activity and may protect human skin from UVB-induced damage by a combination of UV-absorbing and cellular activities. Afzelin attenuates the mitochondrial damage, enhances mitochondrial biogenesis and decreases the level of mitophagy-related proteins, parkin and PTEN-induced putative kinase 1.

Desmethylglycitein (6,7,4'-Trihydroxyisoflavone) , is a novel inhibitor of PKCα in suppressing solar UV-induced matrix metalloproteinase 1, which has antioxidant, and anti-cancer activities.
