Procyanidin B2 and epicatechin isolated from SCEL-1 inhibited UV-induced expression of MMP-1 in HDFs. HDFs were treated with procyanidin B2 (1, 3 or 10 μM) (a, c) or epicatechin (10, 30 or 100 μM) (b, d) in combination with UVB (20 mJ/cm2) for 48 h to measure MMP-1 expression. Relative MMP-1 protein expression was determined by western blot analysis. Statistical significance for the results is given as *p < 0.05 vs. control (CON); #p < 0.05 vs. the UVB-irradiated group
