Abstract

Skin is being increasingly exposed to artificial blue light due to the extensive use of electronic devices. Studies have suggested that blue light, also known as high-energy visible (HEV) light can produce cytotoxic effects associated with oxidative stress, and damage to mitochondrial and DNA repair systems. The work described in this presentation was carried out in order to better understand the deleterious effects of HEV light on the skin. Studies were conducted using primary human keratinocyte and melanocyte cells in 2D culture.
