Abstract
UV-induced DNA damage is a central photochemical event leading to immune suppression, photoaging, and skin cancer. Skin cells use several systems of DNA repair to remove or reverse photolesions and protect against these consequences. Several methods for enhancing DNA repair are now available that have proven to reduce DNA damage, increase cell survival, and lessen the clinical effects of sun exposure.
