protein damage

Protein oxidative damage in UV-related skin cancer and dysplastic lesions contributes to neoplastic promotion and progression

The ultraviolet (UV) component of solar radiation is the major driving force of skin carcinogenesis. Most of studies on UV carcinogenesis actually focus on DNA damage while their proteome-damaging ability and its contribution to skin carcinogenesis have remained largely underexplored.
