Effects of Narrow Band UVB (311 nm) Irradiation on Epidermal Cells
Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is known to be one of the most important environmental hazards acting on the skin. It was revealed that chronic exposure to UVR accelerates skin aging, induces immunosuppression and may lead to the development of skin cancers. On the other hand, UVR has been shown to be effective in the treatment of numerous skin diseases and thus, various phototherapy modalities hav...
متن کاملBiological effects of narrow-band (311 nm TL01) UVB irradiation: a review.
The narrow-band UVB (TL01) lamp (311 nm emission) was developed for use in phototherapy, as an alternative to a broad-band UVB source and to photochemotherapy, both of which have significant side effects and carry a risk of carcinogenesis. This new lamp has proved to be particularly effective at clearing psoriasis. It is now acknowledged that the TL01 lamp is probably 2-3 times more carcinogeni...
متن کاملNarrow band UVB (311 nm), psoralen UVB (311 nm) and PUVA therapy in the treatment of early-stage mycosis fungoides: a right-left comparative study.
BACKGROUND Psoralen ultraviolet A (PUVA) is a widely used first-line therapy for treatment of early cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Narrow band UVB (UVB-NB) (311 nm) has been recently introduced as another effective line of treatment. It is postulated that the efficacy of UVB-NB could be enhanced by addition of psoralen. AIM The aim of the present work was to compare the clinical and histopatholog...
متن کاملNarrow band Ultraviolet B 311 nm in the treatment of vitiligo: two right-left comparison studies.
AIM Evaluation of narrow band ultraviolet B (NB UVB 311 nm) in the treatment of vitiligo by two independent studies. The first study compared NB UVB with a well-established therapeutic modality, psoralen ultraviolet A (PUVA), and the second study was conducted to find out whether psoralen might add to its efficacy. METHODS In the first study, 15 patients were exposed on the left half of their...
