High impact information on BTN2A1

  • In the present study, cultured keratinocytes and mouse and human skin were employed to assess the effect of both oral and topical administration of standardized black tea extract (SBTE) and its two major polyphenolic subfractions namely BTF1 and BTF2 against UVB-induced photodamage [1].
  • Among 70 spots, analyzed and identified by MALDI-MS, 13 spots were identified as BTN spots and only one as a fragment of BTN2A1 [2].
