Animal Models of Acute Photodamage: Comparisons of Anatomic, Cellular and Molecular Responses in C57BL/6J, SKH1 and Balb/c Mice
17 Feb 2011
Abstract excerpt
Human cutaneous photodamage is a major medical problem that includes premature aging and fragility of the skin. Nonxenografted animal models have not been comparatively evaluated for how well they resemble the changes seen in human skin. Here, we sought to identify a suitable mouse model that recapitulates key anatomic, cellular and molecular responses observed in human skin during acute UV exposure. Adult...
