Effect of EAS pretreatment on the UV-B irradiation-induced reduction in HSP70 mRNA levels in NHDFs. The cells were treated with EAS or dextrin for 24 h (a) and 3 h (b); immediately after UV-B irradiation, the cells were further cultured in supplemented medium for 3 h. c Cells were treated with EAS or dextrin for 24 h; immediately after UV-B irradiation, the cells were further cultured under EAS-free condition for 3 h. The relative ratios of HSP70 with respect to 18S are shown. Mean ± SEM (n = 4). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01 (one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s test)
