2015 journal article

Oncogenic BRAF(V600E) Induces Clastogenesis and UVB Hypersensitivity.

Cancers.

Contributors: D. Simpson, N. Lemonie, D. Morgan, S. Gaddameedhi* & W. Kaufmann

author keywords: BRAF(V600E); melanocytes; UVB; melanoma
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that expression of BRAF(V600E) is not only clastogenic, but synergizes for clastogenesis caused by exposure to ultraviolet radiation in the 300 to 320 nM (UVB) range and the importance of preventing sunburns in children with developing moles is emphasized.

2015 journal article

Commentary: Chemiexcitation of melanin derivatives induces DNA photoproducts long after UV exposure.

Frontiers in Physiology.

Contributors: R. Gajula* & S. Gaddameedhi*

author keywords: dark CPDs; melanin; melanoma; oxidative DNA damage; UV radiation
TL;DR: It is found that UV induction of melanin contributes to melanomagenesis only by UVA and not by UVB radiation, which suggests that melanin might contribute to additional DNA damage and might further lead to increased risk of skin cancers. (via Semantic Scholar)
