Popis: SUMMARY Whole-body exposure of normal subjects to erythemogenic doses of UV-B radiation results in a decrease in the proportion of circulating E-rosette-forming lymphocytes, an increase in the proportion of null cells and a decreased incorporation of tridated thymidine into DNA of lymphocytes following stimulation by phytohaemagglutinin (PHA). These alterations are dose-dependent, appear soon after exposure, reach a maximum after 8–12 h, and are reversed by 48–72 h post exposure.
