Suppression of contact hypersensitivity in mice by ultraviolet irradiation is associated with defective antigen presentation.

A single dose of radiation from FS40 sunlamps results in systemic depression of delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) to 2-chloro-1,3,5-trinitrobenzene (TNCB) and 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (DNFB). Immunosuppression is proportional to the log10 dose of radiation and exhibits a delayed time course. An...
