Differential Roles of T‐cell Subsets in Regulation of Ultraviolet Radiation Induced Cutaneous Photocarcinogenesis
12 Nov 2010
Abstract excerpt
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation, in particular the midwavelength range (UVB; 290-320 nm), is one of the most significant risk factors for the development of nonmelanoma skin cancer. UVB radiation-induced immunosuppression, which occurs in both humans and laboratory animals, contributes to their pathogenesis. However, there are conflicting reports on the relative role of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells in UVB induced skin...
