Effect of antioxidant supplementation on the adaptive response of human skin fibroblasts to UV-induced oxidative stress
1 Dec 1999
Abstract excerpt
The effect of supplementation with substances having antioxidant properties on the adaptive responses of human skin fibroblasts to UV-induced oxidative stress was studied in vitro. UVR was found to induce a substantial oxidative stress in fibroblasts, resulting in an increased release of superoxide anions and an increase in lipid peroxidation (shown by an elevated malonaldehyde content). Sub-lethal doses of UVR...
