Photoaging is premature aging of the skin caused by sunlight or artificial UV exposure (e.g. tanning beds). It affects almost everyone in the world. Histones are proteins which are positively charged, allowing them to associate with DNA, which is negatively charged. Some histones are like spools for the thread‐like DNA to wrap around. This study, from China, aimed to analyse patterns of changes (modification) to histones, which can regulate gene expression in sun‐exposed and non‐exposed skin, and ident… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
