Article Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the effect of neuronal differentiation induced by nerve growth factor (NGF) on the tolerance-dosage of ultraviolet radiation of PC12 Cells.

Methods: Neuron-differentiated PC12 cells and untreated PC12 cells were exposed to different ultraviolet radiation dosage of 10, 30, 60, 80, 100, and 200 mJ/cm2. Cell survival rates were determined by MTT assay.

Results: Neuron-differentiated PC12 cells had increased tolerance dose to ultraviolet radiation with noticeable apoptosis at the radiation dose of 100 mJ/cm2 in contrast to 30 mJ/cm2 for normal PC12 cells.

Conclusion: Neuronal differentiation exerts the effect of increasing the tolerance dose of PC12 cells to ultraviolet radiation.

Introduction: Pilots have an increased incidence of cutaneous melanoma compared to the general population; occupational exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation is one of several potential risk factors. Cockpit windshields effectively block UVB (280-315 nm) but further analysis is needed for UVA (315-400 nm). The objective of this observational study was to assess transmission of UVA through cockpit windshields and to measure doses of UVA at pilots' skin under daytime flying conditions.

This study presents the development of multifunctional starch-based biopolymer films reinforced with nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs), synthesized via a hydrothermal method, and exhibiting a high quantum yield (~70 %). N-CQDs were incorporated into the starch matrix at varying concentrations (0.1-1.

Age-related cataract (ARC) represents a major global cause of visual impairment, with ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation recognized as a primary contributor to oxidative damage in the lens. FOXO3, a key regulator of aging, apoptosis, and oxidative stress-induced cell death, was investigated for its role and regulatory mechanisms in UVB-induced oxidative stress using human lens epithelial cells (HLECs). A progressive decrease in FOXO3 protein expression was observed in the lens capsules across various stages of cataract progression, as well as in UVB-exposed animal models and UVB-treated HLECs.

As hyperpigmentation can worsen with exposure to ultraviolet (UV) and visible light (VL), sunscreens with well-balanced UVB/UVA protection and VL-blocking pigments are recommended. Assessing efficiency against VL-induced pigmentation is then mandatory. Recently, an in vivo pigmentation assessment allowing a VL protection factor (pVL-PF) determination, and an in vitro predictive method based on transmittance measures were introduced.
