Hyptis mociniana: phytochemical fingerprint and photochemoprotective effect against UV-B radiation-induced erythema and skin carcinogenesis.

Skin cancer is a public health problem due to its high incidence. Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is the main etiological agent of this disease. Photochemoprotection involves the use of substances to avoid damage caused by UV exposure.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: (Cav.) Less. (Arnica or Capitaneja) is an endemic plant from Mexico restricted to the western part of the country.

Morphological Description of the Early Events during the Invasion of Trophozoites in a Murine Model of Skin Irradiated under UV-B Light.

Skin infections have been associated with , nevertheless the events during skin invasion and UV-B light effects on it are unknown. The early morphological events of skin invasion are shown in SKH-1 mice that were chronically UV-B light irradiated. Mice that developed skin lesions (group 1) were topical and intradermally inoculated with trophozoites and sacrificed 48 h or 18 days later.
