• cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers are observed in hair follicles after treatment with a total UV dose of 1.0 kJ/m2
|
• basal cells exhibit hypoplasia after a total UV dose of 1.0 kJ/m2 despite the dose being much below the minimal erythema dose
|
• cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers are observed in cells within the dermis at a reduced level (4.7% compared to 12% in wild-type mice) after treatment with a total UV dose of 1.0 kJ/m2
• pyridine pirimidone photoproducts accumulate in about 1.8% of epidermal basal cells after treatment with a total UV dose of 1.0 kJ/m2 and no increase in photoproducts with increased exposure
