UVB radiation suppresses generation of Th1 (IFNγ) and Th2 (IL-10) cytokine production by cultured splenocytes stimulated in vitro by mitogen (Anti-CD3e MoAb) 90 min after radiation.^#

Treatment of mice	IFNγ concentration

	IFNγ	IL-10
	pg/mL
Sham (control)	2,470 ± 362	70 ± 11
UVB (400 mJ/cm²)	300 ± 94^**	30 ± 12^*

Splenocytes from UVB- or Sham-treated mice (90 min later) were stimulated for 48 h with anti-CD3e MoAb and harvested supernatants were analyzed for levels of IFNγ and IL-10 as described in the Materials and Methods section. Data presented as mean ± SEM (n=6–7),
