Protective effects of Aloe sterols against UVB‐induced photoaging in hairless mice

Abstract

Aloe vera is a traditional medical plant whose gel has been widely used in skin care. Previously, we have identified Aloe sterols from Aloe vera as active ingredients. This study investigated the protective effects of Aloe sterols without polysaccharides, against ultraviolet B (UVB)‐induced skin photoaging in mice using Aloe vera gel extract (AVGE) obtained by supercritical fluid extraction.
