Influence of dermal exposure to ultraviolet radiation and coal tar (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) on the skin aging process

Highlights • We evaluate the Goeckerman therapy (GT) of psoriasis for skin aging process. • GT combines UV radiation and coal tar with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). • GT induces oxidative stress (oxidative damage DNA/RNA) and genotoxic damage. • UV radiation induces the vitamin D, which i...

Description
Summary:Highlights • We evaluate the Goeckerman therapy (GT) of psoriasis for skin aging process. • GT combines UV radiation and coal tar with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). • GT induces oxidative stress (oxidative damage DNA/RNA) and genotoxic damage. • UV radiation induces the vitamin D, which is protective factor of the aging process. • Vitamin D correlates with oxidative stress and time of UV radiation exposure.
