Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Skin disorders caused by ultraviolet are observed as "sunburn" as an acute reaction. "Sunburn" is a risk factor of developing skin cancer. In this study, we focused on the role of epidermal Langerhans cells (LCs) and the UV-induced apoptotic keratinocyte in the outermost layer of the skin in relation to the termination of the UV-induced cutaneous inflammation. This study demonstrated that LC and apoptotic keratinocytes plays a role in suppression of UV-induced cutaneous inflammation. The inflammatory suppression mechanism and signal are mediated by LC phagocytosis of apoptotic keratinocytes.
