Endogenous photosensitizers play a critical role in both beneficial and harmful light-induced
transformations in biological systems. Understanding their mode of action is essential for …

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the primary cause of various skin diseases, necessitating the
need for UV protection. Topical sunscreens are the most commonly used method to achieve …

Photosensitization reactions have been demonstrated to be largely responsible for the
deleterious biological effects of UV and visible radiation, as well as for the curative actions of …

Genetic information is constantly being attacked by intrinsic and extrinsic damaging agents,
such as reactive oxygen species, atmospheric radiation, environmental chemicals, and …

The Montreal Protocol has limited increases in the UV-B (280–315 nm) radiation reaching
the Earth's surface as a result of depletion of stratospheric ozone. Nevertheless, the …

The application of cutting fluid in the field of engineering manufacturing has a history of
hundreds of years, and it plays a vital role in the processing efficiency and surface quality of …

In the last two decades, an increasing amount of studies have investigated the use of
components based on carbon-(nano) materials in the engineering of neural interfaces, to …

Biological wastewater treatment is not effective in removal of antibiotic resistant bacteria
(ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). In this study, we fabricated a photocatalytic …

Volumetric muscle loss (VML) is associated with a severe loss of muscle tissue that
overwhelms the regenerative potential of skeletal muscles. Tissue engineering has shown …

It is currently thought that UVB radiation drives photoaging of the skin primarily by
generating ROS. In this model, ROS purportedly activates activator protein-1 to upregulate …
