Inhibitory effects on plant tannins on the biochemical markers of the skin tumor promotion induced by ultraviolet B radiation
Abstract
Irradiation of hairless mice with ultraviolet B (UVB) resulted in a dramatic time-dependent and dose-dependent increase in epidermal ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity and DNA synthesis, two short-term biochemical markers linked to the reversible tumo
