Cyclopeptide 161 protects human dermal fibroblasts against UV-induced damage via the MEK1/2–ERK1/2 signaling pathway
Introduction Cutaneous homeostasis is constantly perturbed by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, which triggers extracellular matrix (ECM) structural derangement, fibroblast senescence, and the gradual deterioration of dermal integrity. CP161, a synthetic cyclic hexapeptide, has been documented to upregulate the transcripti...
