Abstract excerpt
Ultraviolet-A radiation represents a significant proportion of the ultraviolet solar spectrum that was recently shown to affect gene expression of epidermal keratinocytes by molecular mechanisms distinct from ultraviolet-B radiation. As ultraviolet-A either alone or in combination with ultraviolet-B may contribute to photocarcinogenesis, we aimed to explore the biologic effects of ultraviolet-A radiation on...
