The mechanisms by which UV radiation is immunosuppressive are controversial, but there is growing evidence that processes of UVB-induced suppression of the immune response towards a sensitizing antigen are different if this antigen is applied to irradiated compared with non-irradiated sites. Consistent with this is our recent observation (Hart et al.,
