Exposure of epidermal keratinocytes to UVB radiation leads the intracellular formation tryptophan photoproducts which subsequently activate aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) induce mal-/adaptive stress responses. Previously, we have found that AHR represses nucleotide excision repair and apoptosis in UVB-irradiated thereby contributes skin photocarcinogenesis mice. The mechanisms by interferes wi...

Background: Regular physical activity (PA) has positive effects on physical, psychological and social health in the individual and the community. Reduced PA is a major global problem that is increasing in prevalence every day. The present study aimed to determine the status of PA among adolescent girls and their perceptions of obesity prevention. Materials and Methods: The present descriptive-a...
