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.
Researchers at the University of Copenhagen and NTU Singapore have discovered that RNA damage, not DNA damage, is the real trigger for the acute effec ...
Sunburn has traditionally been attributed to UV-induced DNA damage. However, a new study by the University of Copenhagen and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, reveals that RNA, another ...
The researchers found that instead of the DNA, the acute effects of sunburn were actually caused due to damage to the RNA. The objective of the study was to describe the impact of UV radiation on ...
