Omics-Based Interaction Analysis Reveals Interplay of Chemical Pollutant (Ozone) and Photoradiation (UVSSR) Stressors in Skin Damage by Hong Zhang, Yiying Dong, Xue Xiao, Xiao Cui, Xuelan Gu

“…Omics-based interaction framework (OBIF) analysis showed that most interactive genes following ozone and UVSSR exposure displayed a cooperative effect and had functions related to the skin barrier; these genes with synergistic effects were enriched in biological pathways such as the chronic inflammatory response and the apoptotic signaling pathway. In summary, exposure to ozone in combination with UVSSR showed a joint effect on UVSSR-induced phenotypic changes in the skin; the underlying mechanism was determined by using transcriptome analysis, showing the additive impacts of ozone on UVSSR-induced skin damage, such as cellular stress and inflammatory responses. …”
