UV radiation targets the skin and is a primary cause of skin cancer (both melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancer).

The efforts of dermatologists and cancer biologists to understand how UV radiation exposure suppresses the immune response and contributes...
متن کاملRecent advances in urocanic acid photochemistry, photobiology and photoimmunology.
Urocanic acid (UCA), produced in the upper layers of mammalian skin, is a major absorber of ultraviolet radiation (UVR). Originally thought to be a 'natural sunscreen', studies conducted a quarter of a century ago proposed that UCA may be a chromophore for the immunosuppression that follows exposure to UVR. With its intriguing photochemistry, its role in immunosuppression and skin cancer develo...

متن کاملGreen tea and skin cancer: photoimmunology, angiogenesis and DNA repair.
Human skin is constantly exposed to numerous noxious physical, chemical and environmental agents. Some of these agents directly or indirectly adversely affect the skin. Cutaneous overexposure to environmental solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation (290-400 nm) has a variety of adverse effects on human health, including the development of melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers. Therefore, there is a ne...
