Regulation of Keratin Expression by Ultraviolet Radiation: Differential and Specific Effects of Ultraviolet B and Ultraviolet A Exposure [PDF]
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2001 Skin, the most superficial tissue of our body, is the first target of environmental stimuli, among which is solar ultraviolet radiation. Very little is known about the regulation of keratin gene expression by ultraviolet radiation, however, although (i) it is well established that ultraviolet exposure is involved in skin cancers and photoaging and (ii)

Fullerenol protects cornea from ultraviolet B exposure
Redox Biology, 2022 The eyes are highly susceptible to the oxidative stress induced by ultraviolet B (UVB, wavelength between 280 ∼ 320 nm), which could cause severe damage to the cornea.

Response of conifers to UV-B and climate in mountain areas [PDF]
Global Journal of Environmental Science and Management, 2018 The present study was focused to examine the combined effects of climate and ultraviolet-B radiation on conifer tree-ring density. Statistical methods were employed to extract tree responses in annual ring density and to identify functional relationship ...

Low Fluence Ultraviolet-B Promotes Ultraviolet Resistance 8-Modulated Flowering in Arabidopsis
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Ultraviolet-B (UV-B) irradiation (280–320 nm) is an integral part of sunlight and a pivotal environmental cue that triggers various plant responses, from photoprotection to photomorphogenesis and metabolic processes.

Rapid reversion from monomer to dimer regenerates the ultraviolet-B photoreceptor UV RESISTANCE LOCUS8 in intact arabidopsis plants [PDF]
, 2013 Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) UV RESISTANCE LOCUS8 (UVR8) is a photoreceptor that specifically mediates photomorphogenic responses to ultraviolet (UV)-B in plants.

Response of barley and pea crops to supplementary UV-B radiation. [PDF]
, 1999 Four cultivars of winter barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and two cultivars of combining pea (Pisum sativum L.) were grown in the field in the UK (52°N) and irradiated under banks of UV-B lamps in 1994/95 (barley) and 1996 (pea).

SOME ULTRAVIOLET PHOTOMICROGRAPHS OF B. SUBTILIS [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1931 1. Type-specific antipneumococcus immunity has been induced in rabbits by immunization with antigen prepared by combining a specific derivative of the capsular polysaccharide of Type III Pneumococcus with globulin from horse serum. 2. Rabbits immunized with this antigen acquire active immunity against infection with virulent Type III ...

Photomorphogenic responses to ultraviolet‐B light [PDF]
Plant, Cell & Environment, 2017 AbstractExposure to ultraviolet B (UV‐B) light regulates numerous aspects of plant metabolism, morphology and physiology through the differential expression of hundreds of genes. Photomorphogenic responses to UV‐B are mediated by the photoreceptor UV RESISTANCE LOCUS8 (UVR8).

Ultraviolet radiation suppresses obesity and symptoms of metabolic syndrome independently of vitamin d in mice fed a high-fat diet [PDF]
, 2014 The role of vitamin D in curtailing the development of obesity and comorbidities such as the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and type 2 diabetes has received much attention recently. However, clinical trials have failed to conclusively demonstrate the benefits
