C60 protects skin cells from UV damage. Fullerene-C60/liposome Complex: Defensive Effects Against UVA-induced Damages in Skin Structure, Nucleus and Collagen Type I/IV Fibrils, and the Permeability Into Human Skin Tissue
- Study strengths: C60 strongly protects human skin cells.
- Study weaknesses: This study was done with human cells in vitro, in a test tube.
C60 protected mice from ionizing radiation. The Polyhydroxylated Fullerene Derivative C60(OH)24 Protects Mice From Ionizing-Radiation-Induced Immune and Mitochondrial Dysfunction
- Study strengths: It was found that 2-week C60 pretreatment effectively reduced whole body irradiation-induced mortality without apparent toxicity.
- Study weaknesses: This study was done with mice.
