Exposure to sunlight can result in a number of harmful effects, including sunburn, erythema, premature aging of the skin, immune suppression and skin cancer. Studies designed to understand the underlying mechanisms often depend upon the use of artificial sources of UV radiation. Unfortunately,

Comparative potency of broad-band and narrow-band phototherapy sources to induce edema, sunburn cells and urocanic acid photoisomerization in hairless mouse skin.

The Philips TL01 narrow-band (311-313 nm) fluorescent lamp provides effective phototherapy for psoriasis and atopic eczema while emitting less erythemogenic radiation than conventional broad-band (e.g. Philips TL12; 270-350 nm) sources. We studied the potency of TL01 and TL12 radiation to induce

Lack of correlation between suppression of contact hypersensitivity by UV radiation and photoisomerization of epidermal urocanic acid in the hairless mouse.

The immunological consequences of exposure to UVA (320-400 nm) radiation are unclear. This study describes the relationship between the generation of epidermal cis-urocanic acid and the ability to respond to a contact-sensitizing agent, in hairless mice exposed to different UV radiation sources,

Differential photoimmunoprotection by sunscreen ingredients is unrelated to epidermal cis urocanic acid formation in hairless mice.

A series of experimental sunscreen preparations based on a common vehicle, containing increasing concentrations of either octyl-N-dimethyl-p-aminobenzoate (o-PABA) or 2-ethylhexyl-p-methoxycinnamate (2-EHMC) as the ultraviolet B (UVB) absorber, has been tested in the hairless mouse for the ability

Isoflavonoid compounds from red clover (Trifolium pratense) protect from inflammation and immune suppression induced by UV radiation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Isoflavones derived from many edible plants have been reported to possess significant antioxidant, estrogenic and tyrosine kinase inhibitory activity. Genistein has been found previously to provide protection from oxidative damage induced by UV radiation both in vitro and following dietary

Protection from inflammation, immunosuppression and carcinogenesis induced by UV radiation in mice by topical Pycnogenol.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pycnogenol is a standardized extract of the bark of the French maritime pine, Pinus pinaster Ait., that has multiple biological effects, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticarcinogenic properties. This study describes the effect of topical application of lotions containing Pycnogenol
