• S3T3 mouse Swiss 3T3
• HSF human dermal fibroblasts
• Example 1 Effect of culture materials on the production of lipid peroxidation
• neonatal human dermal fibroblasts were irradiated using a combination of Sylvania F40 350BL lamps (98% UVA) and Westinghouse FS40 Sunlamps (approximately 50% UVA, 50% UVB) to simulate the normal solar spectrum.
• Neonatal human dermal fibroblast cultures were grown as described above in Corning 75 cm 2 tissue culture flasks or in 100 mm Costar culture dishes. Cultures were then irradiated through the use of a solar simulator arrangement of bulbs with a 6:5 mix of Sylvania F40 350BL lamps and Westinghouse FS40 Sunlamps (50% UVA, 50% UVB) .
• lipid peroxidation assay was conducted. Briefly, irradiated plates were scraped with a rubber policeman and cells and solution were homogenized on a dounce homogenizer. An aliquot of the protein extract was taken for Lowry determination of total protein [Lowry et al . , J Biol Chem (1951) 193:265-275]. The remainder of the extract was precipitated with trichloroacetic acid. The supernatant was assayed for malondialdehyde content in duplicate by combining it with 0.5% thiobarbituric acid solution before boiling for 30 minutes. Samples were measured for their absorbance at 532 nm. Malondialdehyde levels were determined using the reported extinction coefficient [Wilbur et al . , Arch Biochem Biophys (1949) 23:305-313].
• the spectral power distribution of the Sylvania F40 350BL fluorescent lamps used to irradiate the cells was measured with an Optronics Model 742 Spectroradiometer at 2 nm intervals between 250 and 400 nm.
• the irradiance was multiplied by the transmission of the Costar lid used to cover the cells at each wavelength to determine the irradiance of the source to the cells.
• the irradiance at each wavelength was multiplied with a sealer value (representing time) such that the integral equaled 80 J/cm 2 .
• Example 2 Determination of the action spectrum for the production of lipid peroxidation
• Action spectra were determined by using a series of long pass filters to evaluate the differences in dose between two adjacent filters, and attributing the differences in the response being evaluated between the two filters to that waveband in proportion to the total energy difference between the two filters.
• the spectral dose distributions of adjacent filters were subtracted from each other to determine the difference in spectral dose. This was done for each adjacent pair of filters. These difference dose distributions were integrated to determine the difference dose band (See Figure 6) .
• the level of lipid peroxidation per unit protein content for each filter pair was determined as described above.
• the differences in lipid peroxidation for each filter pair was determined by subtracting the levels for the adjacent pair.
• the peroxidation differences for a filter pair were divided by the difference dose band to determine the level of peroxidation attributable to each unit dose of the difference band, indicating the absolute sensitivity of peroxidation to that wave band.
• the absolute sensitivities of all wavebands were integrated and each of the individual sensitivities were divided by the sum to determine the percentage of sensitivity of each waveband.
• the relative sensitivities were plotted as a function of the difference wavelength band to indicate which portion of the UV spectrum was most effective in causing lipid peroxidation.
• Spectral absorbance of each of the Schott long pass filters used for the action spectra determination was measured using a Cary 2300 Spectrophotometer with diffuse reflectance accessory. Absorbances at wavelength between 250 and 400 nm in 2 nm intervals were converted to percent transmission. To determine the spectral dose distribution delivered to the filtered cells, the spectral dose distribution of the source with the Costar lid was multiplied at each wavelength with the transmission of the appropriate Schott filter. Each of these distributions was also integrated to determine the total energy delivered through the filter to the cells. The absorbance of these filters demonstrates the pattern of increased absorbance to higher wavelengths with successive filters. The resultant spectral dose distribution after subtracting the absorbance of each filter from the spectra produced by the lamps is shown in Figure 5. As shown, the use of the filters with increasing wavelength number shifts the absorbance maximum of the resulting spectra to higher wavelengths and eliminates the radiation at lower wavelengths.
• the change in lipid peroxidation produced when the WG280 filter is used compared to no filter represents a region of the spectra which is important for the production of lipid peroxidation in human dermal fibroblasts and Swiss 3T3 cells.
• the change from WG345 filter to the WG360 filter also represents a region which contributes significantly to this effect.
• the difference spectra for each of these transitions produce a peak with absorbance maximum very close to 345 nm indicating that a chromophore exists which is important for the UV-dependent production of lipid peroxidation which has an absorbance maximum very close to 345 nm.
• difference spectra with peaks closely adjacent to the two identified peaks are less sensitive and help to specifically identify the important wavelengths in the UVA region of the spectrum.
• Human dermal fibroblasts also demonstrate another chromophore in the UVB region of the spectrum. This effect may be produced by the small peaks in the dose distribution of the lamp which correspond with 297 and 303 nm shown best in Figure 9. This effect of UVB on the production of lipid peroxidation in human dermal fibroblasts is further shown by the use of the Westinghouse FS40 Sunlamps (See Figure 10) for dose distribution produced with this lamp alone. Using the UVB dominant FS40 Sunlamps, lipid peroxidation can still be induced in human dermal fibroblasts in a dose dependent manner as shown in Figure 11.
• retinoids To determine whether or not the antioxidant activities of retinoids would reduce UVA-induced lipid peroxidation, two different cell types were exposed to UVA in the presence or absence of various retinoids. Surprisingly, all three retinoids tested (all-trans retinoic acid, all-trans retinol and retinol acetate) stimulated lipid peroxidation.
• Lipid peroxidation was increased between 2.5- and 4- fold by retinoid treatment in S3T3 cells (Figure 12A) .
• Retinoic acid was the most active in these cells while retinol and retinol acetate required higher concentrations to achieve the same levels of lipid peroxidation.
• retinoic acid did not stimulate greater amounts of lipid peroxidation than seen with retinol treatment ( Figure 12B) .
• This effect of retinoids on UV-induced lipid peroxidation appears dose and wavelength dependent as shown in Figure 13.
• retinoic acid treated cultures were irradiated with increasing amounts of UVA, a dose dependent increase in the levels of lipid peroxidation was seen.
• the action spectra for the phenomenon was determined as described above. Briefly, using the Schott filters, the levels of lipid peroxidation were determined in Swiss 3T3 cells in the presence of retinoic acid, retinol or retinol acetate ( Figure 14) compared to UVA alone ( Figure 14 and Figure 7) . Treatment of S3T3 cells with retinoids produced a similar, but not identical, pattern for all the retinoids tested.
• the loss in the production of lipid peroxidation with successive filters was quite different than the pattern produced by UVA alone.
• the use of the WG 280 filter did not produce a decrease in the level of lipid peroxidation in retinoid treated cells. Instead, a consistently noted increase in lipid peroxidation was produced when the WG 280 filter was used, indicating that some wavelength or wavelengths (presumably found in the UVB region of the spectrum) is capable of inhibiting the ability of retinoids to induce the production of oxidative products in the presence of other portions of the emitted spectrum.
• This effect of the WG280 filter was specific for retinoid treated cells since S3T3 cells in the absence of retinoids did not demonstrate the same increase in lipid peroxidation.
• retinoic acid produces a very different action spectrum compared to that produced in untreated S3T3 cells.
• the filters which block the UVB (WG280 and WG230) wavelengths inhibit the production of lipid peroxidation in these experiments.
• the slow rise to a peak between 360-375 demonstrated by the greatest effect using the difference between the WG360 and the WG375 filters is similar to the absorbance spectra for retinoic acid (See Figure 17) .
