Effect of Oxya chinensis sinuosa Mishchenko extract (Oc.Ex) on ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced skin thickening in hairless mice. a Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining of UVB-irradiated hairless mice skin (Original magnification, × 400). b Protective effect of Oc. Ex on collagen fiber changes (Histological observation of hairless mouse skin using Masson’s trichrome staining). Collagen fibers were stained blue, and images were obtained at × 400 magnification. c Dorsal skin epidermal thickness (Original magnification, × 400). Data are compared with those of the normal group (####p < 0.0001), and the percentages of the vehicle group (****p < 0.0001). Scale bar, 20 μm. Nor, Normal; Veh, Vehicle; Oc. Ex, Oxya chinensis sinuosa Mishchenko extract
