UV wavelength-dependent DNA damage and human non-melanoma and melanoma skin cancer.

Photochemical & photobiological sciences : Official journal of the European Photochemistry Association and the European Society for Photobiology - 1 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation from the sun has been epidemiologically and mechanistically linked to skin cancer, a spectrum of diseases of rising incidence in many human populations. Both non-melanoma and melanoma skin cancers are associated with sunlight exposure. In this review, we discuss the UV wavelength-dependent formation of the major UV-induced DNA damage products, their repair and mutagenicity and their...
