Abstract: Objective: To determine the protective effects of the extract from Saussurea laniceps on the proliferation of human fibroblasts induced by UVA. [WT5”HZ]Methods: The extract from Saussurea laniceps was prepared and the cultured human fibroblasts were divided into normal control group, UVA group and UVA+ Saussurea laniceps group. The cell proliferation activity was detected by CCK8 and the OD of cells was detected. Results: Dead cells in UVA+ Saussurea laniceps group were less than 5%, which was less than that in UVA group (20%~30%). OD in UVA+ Saussurea laniceps group was 1.16±0.22, which was higher than that in UVA group (0.5±0.12), with a significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion: The extract of Saussurea laniceps has protective effects on human fibroblasts proliferation induced by UVA.
