The effects of the metformin on inhibition of UVA-induced expression of MMPs and COL-I in human skin fibroblasts
This study was to investigate the effects of metformin (MF) on ultraviolet A (UVA)-induced expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and type I collagen (COL-I) in human skin fibroblasts (HSFs). HSFs were cultured in vitro and divided into control group, UVA group, and UVA + MF group. Cell prol...
