Researchers at the University of Copenhagen and Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) have, now, made a new claim ...

Most people associate sunburns with DNA damage -- it's what we've been taught in textbooks and by dermatologists for years.

New research reveals that sunburn may be caused by RNA damage, not DNA, challenging long-held beliefs about UV exposure ...

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 ...

Spending enough time in the sun without adequate protection can leave us looking and presumably feeling like a lobster ready for the plate.

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 surprising paradigm shift could lead to much more protective sunscreens and effective skin treatments.

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 ...

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.

Traditionally, these effects were thought to be due to DNA damage. However, this study reveals that the acute effects of sunburn are actually caused by damage to RNA, not DNA. For years, we’ve been ...
