Experiments carried out in mice about 30 years ago\udindicated that the exposure to ultraviolet radiation\ud(UVR) could down-regulate cell-mediated immunity.\udSince then, considerable progress has been made to\udelucidate the complex cascade that starts with the\udabsorption of photons at or just below the body surface\udand ends with the generation of T cells that can\udsuppress immune responses
