Rg2 effects on the upstream signal molecules of MAPK signaling pathway. A Representative western blots showing the effects of Rg2 on the phosphorylation of Src, MEK and SEK. Phosphorylation ratio analysis of Src, MEK, and SEK respectively. B–D Hs68 cells were treated with UV CM with Rg2 (50 μM) for 15 min. Forskolin was the positive control. The CM control was cultivated in UVB non-irradiated HaCaT cell culture medium in Hs68 cells. UV CM was cultivated in UVB-irradiated HaCaT cell culture medium in Hs68 cells. #p < 0.05 compared with the vehicle control; *p < 0.05 compared with the UV CM
