Brazilian Consensus on Photoprotection [PDF]
Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2014 Brazil is a country of continental dimensions with a large heterogeneity of climates and massive mixing of the population. Almost the entire national territory is located between the Equator and the Tropic of Capricorn, and the Earth axial tilt to the ...

Indian Journal of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprology, 2007 The deleterious effect of ultraviolet radiation on humans has increased the need for photoprotection. Sunscreens are widely used as photo protective agents. They are divided into chemical sunscreens which absorb high-energy ultraviolet rays and physical blockers which reflect or scatter light.

Widening the landscape of transcriptional regulation of green algal photoprotection
Nature Communications, 2023 Availability of light and CO2, substrates of microalgae photosynthesis, is frequently far from optimal. Microalgae activate photoprotection under strong light, to prevent oxidative damage, and the CO2 Concentrating Mechanism (CCM) under low CO2, to raise

High‐Throughput Screen of NPQ in Sorghum Shows Highly Polygenic Architecture of Photoprotection [PDF]
Plant-Environment InteractionsNatural genetic variation in photosynthesis and photoprotection within crop germplasm represents an untapped resource for crop improvement. Sorghum bicolor (sorghum) is one of the world's most widely grown crops, yet the genetic basis of photoprotection ...

Novel Means for Photoprotection [PDF]
Frontiers in Medicine, 2018 Due to changes in human lifestyle (expanded sunbathing, the use of solaria, etc.) and, most importantly, increasing lifetime and thus higher cumulative exposure to solar radiation, skin aging and skin cancer have become major health issues.

N6-methyladenosine RNA modification regulates photosynthesis during photodamage in plants
Nature Communications, 2022 Efficient photoprotection is vital for the maintenance of photosynthetic efficiency during photodamage. Here, the authors reveal that m6A writer VIRILIZER acts as a molecular switch of photoprotection by post-transcriptional regulation in plants.
