In everyday life, our genetic material is constantly under attack from many factors. Environmental influences such as light, ...
New research reveals that sunburn may be caused by RNA damage, not DNA, challenging long-held beliefs about UV exposure.
Sunburn has traditionally been attributed to UV-induced DNA damage. However, a new study reveals that RNA, another vital cellular molecule, plays a major role in triggering acute sunburn reactions.
DNA can be damaged by normal cellular processes as well as external factors such as UV radiation and chemicals. Such damage can lead to breaks in the DNA strand. If DNA damage is not properly repaired ...
UV radiation is also produced by artificial sources like tanning beds and certain lamps. There are several types of UV, but ...
