Summary: | UVB is a potent modulator of cell growth and differentiation in the skin. The UVB irradiation has been used in treating hyperproliferative dermatoses. Otherwise, UVB radiation is also the major risk factor for developing skin cancer. Nitric oxide (NO) has been suggested to be a physiological modulator of cell proliferation. Raf-1 kinase inhibitory protein (RKIP) was involved in cell growth, transformation, and differentiation. The purpose of this study was to search for the possible cause of UVB-inhibited hyperplasia and UVB-resulted hyperproliferation. We evaluated various UVB dose whether affect the expression of RKIP, iNOS, NO and proliferation in keratinocyte. Normal human keratinocytes were treated with UVB dose of 40mJ/cm2, 80mJ/cm2, 120mJ/cm2, 160mJ/cm2 and 0mJ/cm2 (control group) respectively. The results showed that RKIP, iNOS and NO of keratinocytes with doses of 40mJ/cm2 and 80mJ/cm2 UVB treatment significantly higher than control group (P |
