Exposure to ultraviolet B (UV-B) light is recognized to induce suppression of certain immune responses, particularly delayed hypersensitivity. However, its effect on cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activity, of major importance in the resistance to viruses and tumours, has not been assessed to the same
Natural killer T (NKT) cells and regulatory T cells (Tregs) are both found within the liver and are known to exhibit immune regulatory functions. Hepatic NKT cells are activated early during inflammatory responses and release cytokines, including interferon gamma (IFN-โฅ), which we speculated could r
