Abstract

Acute, low dose ultraviolet B radiation of murine body wall skin followed by local application of DNFB produces a state of antigen-specific unresponsiveness. This state is maintained at least in part by an Lyt-1+ T cell that effects unresponsiveness by impairing the induction phase of contact hypersensitivity. The absence of suppressor cells capable of acting at the effector stage of immunity suggests that tolerogenic signals derived from the skin establish suppressor networks that are incomplete and perhaps different from networks that are induced by systemic administration of tolerogens. It is proposed that ultraviolet radiation produces its effects by impairing the antigen-presenting potential of resident Langerhans cells in whose absence hapten-derivatized keratinocytes (or their products) are able to deliver a tolerogenic signal.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
