Abstract:
The present invention provides methods of detecting ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced skin damage in a subject. The method includes the steps of: a) obtaining a skin sample from the subject; b) analyzing expression levels in the skin sample of UVR-induced differentially expressed genes (DEGs) listed in Table 8 or a subset thereof; and c) comparing the expression levels of the UVR-induced DEGs to a control skin sample; wherein, when the expression levels of the UVR-induced DEGs in the skin sample is above or below the level of each of the UVR-induced DEGs in the control sample, the subject is identified as likely being afflicted with UVR-induced skin damage. Also provided are methods for measuring the effectiveness of a test agent in reducing ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced damage.
