Radiation is a form of energy released in the form of rays, particles, or waves. It can be found all around us, from the sun and stars, to man-made sources like cell phones, computers, and nuclear power plants. Radiation can be both beneficial and harmful. It can be used to diagnose and treat illnesses and diseases, or it can cause long-term health problems such as cancer. On this page, you can find the latest news, articles, and videos about radiation and how it affects us.
The chaperone HJURP facilitates DNA damage signaling and repair locally, and is also able to affect global structure of heterochromatin independently of damage induction, promoting genome-wide reorganization, assisting DNA repair and conferring radiation resistance to glioma cells.
Computational modeling of radiation-induced lung fibrosis via the agent-based paradigm provides valuable insights into the initiation and progression of toxicity.
Ocular melanoma is a rare, but deadly cancer. This large cancer registry study examines the associations between solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and incidence of different anatomical sites of ocular melanoma by sex, age, and race and ethnicity.
Our robust evidence of strong aerosol fingerprint on tropical marine clouds provides a unique constraint for calibration of global climate models and an effective method to unambiguously evaluate the efficacy of Marine Cloud Brightening (MCB), a climate geoengineering approach.
The lens protein gamma D crystallin (HGD) exhibits remarkable stability even when exposed to UV radiation. Here we explore the role of cysteine modifications and photostability in aged HGD crystals using serial synchrotron crystallography.
