Summary

The purpose of this project is to obtain clinical data, including skin samples, that will help investigators evaluate changes occurring in sun damaged human skin as a result of light that simulates sun exposure (Solar Simulated Light). Of specific interest are the molecular targets for cancer prevention. Molecular targets are the parts of the body's cells that have been shown to play a role in causing or preventing cancer and which scientists seek to affect in a way that may slow or eliminate the development of cancer.

Conditions

  • Sun Damaged Skin

Interventions

OTHER

Solar Simulated Light (SSL)

Acute SSL will be delivered to sun damaged skin at a rate of two-times the minimal erythema dose of each individual subject. Minimal erythema dose is defined as the smallest dose of energy necessary to produce confluent erythema with four distinct borders at 22-26 hours post-exposure.
