The premutagenic oxidative DNA base damage, 7, 8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine, is induced in
human skin fibroblasts by monochromatic radiation ranging from a UVB wavelength (312 …

Although ultraviolet A radiation (UVA, 315-400 nm) has been shown to induce oxidative
stress in mammalian cells and skin, the critical chromophore (s) and molecular target (s) …

DNA damage induced by UV radiation and visible light (290-500 nm) in AS52 Chinese
hamster cells was analysed by an alkaline elution assay with specific repair endonucleases …

Six-week-old male albino hairless mice (Hos: Hr-1) were exposed to a near-ultraviolet (UV)
fluorescent sun lamp (33.5 kJ/m 2/hr; wave length> 270 nm with a peak at 312.5 nm) to …

Exposure of cells and human skin to UVA radiation oxidatively induces damage to DNA that
consists mostly of 8-oxo-7, 8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoGua), together with relatively minor …

Highly pigmented, dark skin is more resistant to the harmful effects of solar ultraviolet
radiation than light-colored human skin. The extent to which tanning protects skin from …

This review article focuses on a critical survey of the main available information on the UVB
and UVA oxidative reactions to cellular DNA as the result of direct interactions of UV …

Antibodies specific for uv-induced DNA damage were raised in rabbits, and used to study
damage and repair of nuclear DNA in nude mouse and human skin in vivo by immuno …

The DNA damage induced by visible light in L1210 mouse leukaemia cells was analysed by
