Dna Damage
DNA damage refers to changes or alterations in normally structured DNA. It is a major factor in aging, cancer, and other genetic diseases. DNA damage can be caused by a variety of sources, including radiation, chemicals, and UV light. The body has a number of mechanisms in place to repair any damage, but when the damage is extensive, the body may not be able to fix it and the cell may die or become mutated. This is why it is important to limit exposure to damaging agents and to have good repair mechanisms in place. DNA damage can have serious consequences for both health and longevity, so understanding the causes and methods of repair is essential for maintaining a healthy lifestyle and preventing genetic diseases.
