Intravital Imaging of Dynamic Behaviors of Leukocytes in UVB-induced Skin Inflammation
Ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation diminishes surface densities of Langerhans cells (LCs) in the epidermis of the skin. Other leukocytes, such as neutrophils and macrophages, are recruited to the irradiated sites due to chemo-attracting factors released from the altered microenvironment. However, …

Evaluating the clinical and physiological effects of long term ultraviolet B radiation on guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) and rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus)
… this hormone through their diet, exposure to ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation and subsequent photobiochemical synthesis, or a combination thereof. The objectives for this research were to evaluate the clinical and physiologic effects of artificial UVB light supplementation on rabbits (Oryctolagus …

Vitamin D in Human Health and Performance: The Pursuit of Evidence-Based Practice in an Era of Scientific Uncertainty
… can be synthesized in the skin upon exposure to ultraviolet-B (UVB) light, or obtained through dietary and supplement sources. Traditionally known for its role in bone metabolism, vitamin D is currently described as a pleiotropic hormone with genomic and non-genomic roles in most body tissues. …

Ultraviolet a irradiation on human skin : nitric oxide mediated cardiovascular responses
… mortality is caused by variations in ultraviolet exposure other than temperature. Known mechanisms of sunlight exposure that affect cardiovascular health include temperature and the ultraviolet B (UVB) mediated photolysis of 7-dehydrocholesterol in the skin to produce 1,25 …
