Abstract

index (%) in unirradiated mouse skin was 11.0+/-4.3. LI was significantly increased by tape stripping to 22.1+/-4.6. 2. The number of SBC in 1cm epidermis after 50mJ/cm UVB exposure was 28.2+/-4.1. The number of SBC was increased by tape stripping to 57.4+Cell proliferation, by evaluating sunburn cell (SBC) formation, was studied in mouse skin following tape stripping and ultraviolet light B (UVB) exposun.. 1-radiation was achieved using high pressure mercury are UVB. The results are summarized as follows. 1. Labeling 19.2. These results suggest that proliferating cells are more sensitive to UVB exposure.
