TLDR Sanhuang Fukang oil helps heal radiation skin injuries by reducing inflammation and cell death.
The study found that Sanhuang Fukang oil (SHFKO) effectively treats radiodermatitis by promoting faster healing of radiation-induced skin injuries. It works through multiple mechanisms, including inhibiting apoptosis, reducing pro-inflammatory mediators, inhibiting the MAPK/PI3K-AKT pathway, and restoring ROS homeostasis. These results indicate that SHFKO could be a promising candidate for clinical development in treating radiation dermatitis, providing a multi-target therapeutic approach that differs from conventional methods.
