Thinning of dermas with the increasing age may be against by tetrahydroxystilbene glucoside in mice.

CONCLUSION: TSG and PME showed their protections to skin aging in mice challenged with control groups. It ensured the anti-thinning effect of dermas of TSG and provided two potential factors (insulin/IGF-1 signal pathway and the level of Ca(2+)) related to skin senescence of aging mice.
