Oral nicotinamide protects against ultraviolet radiation-induced immunosuppression in humans.
Cutaneous immunity, which is a key defence against the development of skin cancers, is suppressed by even small doses of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Preventing this UV-induced immunosuppression may therefore reduce the incidence of skin cancer. Nicotinamide (vitamin B3) has immune-protective and cancer-preventive effects against UV radiation in mice, and we have shown previously that topical ni...
متن کاملProtection against solar ultraviolet radiation in childhood.
In the last decade, awareness of the harmful effects of solar ultraviolet radiation has increased. Modern lifestyles, outdoor occupations, sports and other activities make total sun avoidance impossible. Children spend more time outdoors than adults and there is compelling evidence that childhood is a particularly vulnerable time for the photocarcinogenic effects of the sun. Sun exposure among ...
متن کاملThioredoxin Reductase is More Effective than Glutathione Reductase in Inducing Protection against Plasmodium Berghei Infection
Thioredoxin reductase and glutathione reductase are important enzymes of redox system that help the malaria parasite to maintain an adequate intracellular redox environment and contribute greatly to the antioxidant capacity of the cell. In the present study humoral immune response directed against thioredoxin reductase and glutathione reductase during Plasmodium berghei infection were investiga...
متن کاملProtection against ultraviolet and visible radiation used in medical therapy
There is an increasing number of applications for UV and visible radiation in medical therapy and diagnosis, and in areas related to cosmetology. All these applications pose risks of unwanted exposure of the staff executing the treatment and the patients. A new survey in Norwegian hospitals accounting for the status of radiation protection in phototherapy will be presented. The survey concludes...
متن کاملCurcumin-Loaded BSA Nanoparticles Protect More Efficiently Than Natural Curcumin Against Scopolamine-Induced Memory Retrieval Deficit
Introduction: There is evidence indicating that the rate of AD is lower in curry consuming populations. Then, there is an effort to elucidate if curcumin -as the main ingredient of turmeric- might affect the process of AD. However, in clinical trials of AD, a six-month curcumin treatment failed to show any progress, which might be attributable to its low bioavailability. In this line, a recent ...
