Gadusol is a potent, maternally supplied natural sunscreen. Gadusol is synthesized by the mother during oogenesis and stored in eggs, representing the primary sunscreen mechanism during the early developmental stages of fish. Gadusol directly prevents UVB-induced DNA damage and reduces the generation of ROS thereby avoiding cellular stress and apoptosis. Gadusol does not exert antioxidant functions in zebrafish embryos. Gadusol can be used in studies related to topical photoprotective cosmetics[1][2][3].
