title: [Variations of HBD-2 and TLR-2 gene expression in patients presenting with lichen ruber planus under effect of ultraviolet irradiation].
abstract: The combination of narrow-band range UV-A (311 nm) and middle/broad-band UV-B (320-400 nm) irradiation was shown to significantly reduce manifestations of objective and subjective symptoms in the patients presenting with lichen ruber planus. Moreover, it promoted elimination ofdisbalance between characteristics of congenital immunity and normalization of HBD-2 and TLR-2 gene expression.
