Maresin 1 (MaR1) is a lipid derived from docosahexaenoic acid that not only reduces inflammation as anti-inflammatories, but also activates endogenous pro-resolution mechanisms for the end of inflammation. The MaR1 also features a different class of macrophages, the resolving macrophage. This macrophage has characteristics such as maintaining microbicidal activity such as M1 macrophages w…
Exposure to the ultraviolet radiation is the main risk factor for the development of skin cancer. Special attention should be given to long-term exposure because it is primarily responsible for premature aging and skin cancer. Safety and efficacy studies evaluate sunscreens under acute conditions of exposure to the ultraviolet radiation, which is not consistent with the actual conditions …
In Brazil, skin cancer is the tumor with the highest incidence and accounts for 25% of all malignant tumors reported in the country. However, the use of sunscreens is increasing proportionally to the incidence of skin disorders associated with ultraviolet (UV) light. This fact may be related to instability filters and excipients of photoprotective formulations, as well as the interactions…

The skin presents several antioxidant defense mechanisms. However, some situations, such as longer exposition to ultraviolet radiation (UVR), are able to increase the concentration of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The generation of ROS might take to photoaging and diseases like cancer. Topic administration of antioxidants is an efficiently way to improve endogenous skin protective system…
