A groundbreaking study shows tanning beds create dangerous DNA mutations deep within skin cells—far exceeding the damage ...

The findings of a new academic paper suggest that warming winters are causing damage to the DNA of some lizards.

Use of tanning beds nearly triples the risk of developing melanoma, and it also damages the DNA of skin cells across the body ...

DNA can sustain serious injuries called double strand breaks, in which both strands of the helix snap. These breaks are among ...

Tanning bed use is tied to almost a threefold increase in melanoma risk, and for the first time, scientists have shown how ...

A research group has demonstrated that overexpression of Cdc10-dependent transcript 1 (CDT1), a key regulator of DNA ...

DNA–protein cross-links (DPCs) represent a severe form of DNA damage that can disrupt essential chromatin-based processes.

A common childhood virus, BK virus, dormant in the urinary tract, is now linked to DNA damage increasing bladder cancer risk.

Tanning beds emit 10 to 15 times more UVA rays than the sun. New research shows that translates to a dramatic increase in the ...

DNA–protein cross-links (DPCs) represent a severe form of DNA damage that can disrupt essential chromatin-based processes.

Scripps Research scientists have discovered how some tumors endure DNA damage, revealing a potential new way to target them. The DNA inside our cells is constantly exposed to damage, and one of the ...
