Photoaging.
Among harmful environmental factors that contribute to extrinsic aging, long-term effects of repeated exposure to ultraviolet light are the most significant and are referred to as photoaging. Photoaging is a multisystem degenerative process that involves the skin and skin support system. It is a cumulative process and depends primarily on the degree of sun exposure and skin pigment. The epiderm...
متن کاملAging and photoaging
Skin aging is not a unique phenomenon but it is commonly divided into two different processes: chronological aging and photo-aging. Therefore we recognise two different phenotypes of skin aging. Chronological aging represents the structural, functional and metabolic changes in the skin that parallel the aging and degenerative changes in other body organs. Photo-aging is a consequence of oxidati...
متن کاملInvolvement of TGF-beta in Skin Photoaging
The goal of this thesis study was to understand the role of TGF-3 in skin photoaging, especially in solar elastosis. Solar elastosis, the accumulation of elastotic material in the dermal extracellluar matrix, is a major hallmark of photoaging. However, the mechanisms by which UV radiation causes solar elastosis are poorly understood. TGF-3 is a multifunctional cytokine involved in the regulatio...
متن کامل12. Understanding and treating photoaging
Pigment blemishes, wrinkles, and flaccid skin are not just the natural consequence of the passage of time, but the result of excessive time in the sun. Photodamage also develops into actinic keratoses and skin cancer, and because we live in an era of ‘ozone holes’, we can expect the incidence of photoaging and skin cancer to increase dramatically. People are simultaneously living longer than ev...
متن کاملOccurrence of cancer in Asians and non-Asians.
Cancer registration data for a defined geographical area, covering a seven year period, were modified to include the variable "Asian ethnic origin." The data were then used to test the hypothesis that a difference would be found between Asians and non-Asians in the pattern of cancer by site. Whereas the incidence of cancer of all sites appeared to be significantly lower in Asians (p less than 0...
