ANTIOXIDANTY A OCHRANA KŮŽEPŘED PŮSOBENÍM UV ZÁŘENÍ
UV záření způsobuje v lidské kůži zvýšenou produkci vysoce reaktivních kyslíkových radikálů, které navozujív cílové tkáni oxidační stres a poškozují důležité buněčné struktury. Hlavním ochranným systémem kůže protioxidačnímu poškození je komplex antioxidantů. Antioxidanty, především vitamin E, mohou být užívány jakofotoprotektiva.

Overview
Ultraviolet radiation causes increase of production of the reactive oxygen species in the human skin, which areresponsible for oxidative stress and damage of many important cellular components in the target tissue. The complexof antioxidants represents the major protective system against the oxidative damage of the skin. Many antioxidants,namely vitamin E, can be succesfully used in photoprotection.
Key words:
ultraviolet radiation, free oxygen radicals, antioxidants, photoprotection.
