Effects and Mechanism of Nicotinamide Against UVA ‐ and/or UVB ‐mediated DNA Damages in Normal Melanocytes
13 Aug 2018
Abstract excerpt
Melanoma incidences are increasing rapidly, and ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is believed to be its major contributing factor. UV exposure causes DNA damage in skin which may initiate cutaneous skin cancers including melanoma. Melanoma arises from melanocytes, the melanin-producing skin cells, following genetic dysregulations resulting into hyperproliferative phenotype and neoplastic transformation....
