Abstract
Grafts of human skin on nude mice were irradiated with varying doses of ultraviolet light B and at various intervals were subjected to histological examination and determination of the epidermal 3H-thymidine labelling index. The studies showed that the human skin in the foreign milieu of the nude mouse retained its ability to respond to phototoxic damage. The findings suggest that the nude mouse/human skin model could be a valuable tool in human photodermatological research.
