Inhibitors of Nucleotide Excision Repair Decrease UVB-Induced Mutagenesis—An In Vitro Study
The high incidence of skin cancers in the Caucasian population is primarily due to the accumulation of DNA damage in epidermal cells induced by chronic ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure. UVB-induced DNA photolesions, including cyclobutane–pyrimidine dimers (CPDs), promote mutations in skin cancer driver...
