Literature review synthesizes UV exposure's influence on neurological function linked to skin effects.

This review aims to synthesize evidence regarding the impact of ultraviolet exposure on brain function, focusing on skin-derived signaling.
Conducted a narrative review of experimental and clinical studies on UV exposure effects.
Integrated findings from photodermatology, immunology, neuroscience, and microbiome research.
Examined systemic and neurological consequences of UV exposure through the lens of skin-brain interactions.
UV exposure induces systemic inflammatory responses and immunosuppression.
Changes in neurotransmitter systems and neuroplasticity were noted in studies.
Evidence supports indirect pathways linking skin, immune responses, and central nervous system function.

Deriouich et al. (2026) studied this question.
