Solar radiation induced skin damage: Review of protective and preventive options
Original language description
This review summarizes current knowledge on endogenous systems within the skin for protection from solar radiation and research findings to date, on the exogenous options for such skin photoprotection. Endogenous systems for protection include melanin synthesis, epidermal thickening and an antioxidant network. Existing lesions are eliminated via repair mechanisms. Cells with irreparable damage undergo apoptosis. Exogenous protection includes sun avoidance, use of photoprotective clothing and sufficientapplication of broad-spectrum sunscreens as presently the best way to protect the skin. However other strategies may enhance currently used means of protection. These are often based on the endogenous protective response to sunlight. New approaches to the prevention of skin damage are important especially for specific groups of people such as children, photosensitive people and patients on immunosuppressive therapy.
