Topically Applied Eicosapentaenoic Acid Protects Against Local Immunosuppression Induced by UVB Irradiation, cis-Urocanic Acid and Thymidine Dinucleotides

ABSTRACT UVB‐induced immunosuppression, a promoter of photocarcinogenesis, involves the formation of pyrimidine dimers and cis‐urocanic acid (cis‐UCA), but reactive oxygen species (ROS) also plays an important role. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) can inhibit photocarcinogenesis, but due to its polyunsa...
