Abstract
Ultraviolet B radiation (UVB) has profound effects on human skin that results in a broad spectrum of immunological local and systemic responses and is the major cause of skin carcinogenesis. One important area of study in photobiology is how UVB is translated into effector signals. As the skin is exposed to UVB light, subcellular microvesicle particles (MVP), a subtype of bioactive extracellular vesicles, are released causing a variety of local and systemic immunological effects. In this review, we highlight keratinocyte MVP release in keratinocytes in response to UVB. Specifically, Platelet-activating factor receptor agonists generated by UVB result in MVP released from keratinocytes. The downstream effects of MVP release include the ability of these subcellular particles to transport agents including the glycerophosphocholine-derived lipid mediator Platelet-activating factor (PAF). Moreover, even though UVB is only absorbed in the epidermis, it appears that PAF release from MVPs also mediates systemic immunosuppression and enhances tumor growth and metastasis. Tumor cells expressing PAF receptors can use this mechanism to evade chemotherapy responses, leading to treatment resistance for advanced cancers such as melanoma. Furthermore, novel pharmacological agents provide greater insight into the UVB-induced immune response pathway and a potential target for pharmacological intervention. This review outlines the need to more clearly elucidate the mechanism linking UVB-irradiation with the cutaneous immune response and its pathological manifestations. An improved understanding of this process can result in new insights and treatment strategies for UVB-related disorders from carcinogenesis to photosensitivity.

Abstract
Microvesicle particles (MVP) are bioactive subcellular particles which have been recently implicated in the keratinocyte response to many environmental stressors including ultraviolet B radiation (UVB). Previous studies have demonstrated that UVB generates high levels of MVP in a process involving the platelet-activating factor receptor (PAFR) and the enzyme acid sphingomyelinase (aSMase). Yet the fluences of UVB needed to generate MVP are usually above those commonly encountered. Using models including human epithelial cell lines in vitro, human skin explants ex vivo and murine studies in vivo, the present studies indicate that pretreatment of epithelial cells/skin with PAFR agonist/phorbol ester can synergize with low fluences of UVB to generate high levels of MVP. These studies indicate the possibility that MVP could play a role in combinatorial pathologic processes involving UVB.

Abstract
Recent studies have implicated bioactive microvesicle particles (MVP) in the keratinocyte response to many environmental stressors, in partricular ultraviolet B radiation (UVB). The generation of MVP in response to UVB involves the Platelet-activating factor receptor (PAFR) and the enzyme acid sphingomyelinase (aSMase). As UVB generates some cytokines such as interleukin-8 (IL-8) in a PAFR-dependent manner, one question is if the production and release of IL-8 and MVP could be linked. Using the human keratinocyte-derived cell line HaCaT, the present in vitro studies indicate that pretreatment of HaCaT keratinocytes with PAFR agonist ester can synergize with low fluences of UVB to generate high levels of MVP as well as IL-8 protein. Treatment of cells with an aSMase pharmacologic inhibitor blocked both processes. These studies indicate the possibility that MVP could be involved in pathologic processes involving UVB-generated production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-8.

Abstract
Environmental stressors exert a profound effect on humans. Many environmental stressors have in common the ability to induce reactive oxygen species. The goal of this chapter is to present evidence that the potent lipid mediator platelet-activating factor (PAF) is involved in the effects of many stressors ranging from cigarette smoke to ultraviolet B radiation. These environmental stressors can generate PAF enzymatically as well as PAF-like lipids produced by free radical-mediated attack of glycerophosphocholines. Inasmuch as PAF exerts both acute inflammation and delayed immunosuppressive effects, involvement of the PAF system can provide an explanation for many consequences of environmental stressor exposures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In addition to recreational tanning bed use, UV radiation exposures are sometimes sought to self-treat skin conditions. The ability of tanning bed radiation exposure to trigger toxic epidermal necrolysis has not been reported. OBSERVATIONS A young woman attempted to treat a self-limiting drug hypersensitivity reaction via tanning bed radiation exposure, which resulted in a systemic toxic epidermal necrolysis-like reaction. Studies with cultured keratinocytes and an epithelial cell line reveal that UV-A radiation can synergize with other stimuli such as phorbol esters or interleukin 1 to produce large amounts of tumor necrosis factor, providing a potential mechanism for this exaggerated reaction. CONCLUSION In addition to inducing photodamage and skin cancer, tanning bed radiation exposure can trigger a toxic epidermal necrolysis-like reaction, possibly via the exaggerated production of keratinocyte cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor.
