Abstract

We report the first observation of neutrophils in the dermal inflammatory infiltrate in human skin soon after moderate ultraviolet-B (UVB) irradiation. Thus human UVB-induced cutaneous inflammation, in this as in other respects, appears to resemble other human acute inflammatory responses to injury.
