Abstract
Inner shell of chestnut (Castanea Mollissima, Fagaceae) is well-known anti-wrinkle agent, which has been used for long time in the treatment of skin aging. In this study, the extract of chestnut inner shell (CMIE) and its major component, ellagic acid (EA), were studied for their protective effects against free radical generation and hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative DNA damages in the mammalian cells.(omitted)
