Compound K Increases Type I Procollagen Level and Decreases Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 Activity and Level in Ultraviolet-A-irradiated Fibroblasts
Ginsenosides have many biomedical efficacies, such as anti-aging, antioxidation, and anti-inflammatory activities. Compound K (CK), one of the major metabolites of ginsenosides, mediates the antimetastatic and anti-allergic activities of the ginsenosides. The purpose of this study was to investigate...
