Exposing people with similar types of breast cancer to radiation alone led to changes in tumor and immune cells, paving the way for novel treatment approaches.

Radiation, whether in the form of high-energy particles or electromagnetic waves, is conventionally known to break our cellular DNA, leading to cancer and genetic disorders.

At high doses, cosmic rays can tear through DNA molecules and damage biological tissue. Prolonged exposure to cosmic ...

It is the story of Chernobyl’s feral dogs, and it begins not with a whimper but with a nuclear boom a boom that, some four decades ago, transformed a thriving village into a zone of exclusion, and ...

Ionizing radiation, or the emission of high-energy waves or particles, works as a therapy by damaging a cancer cell’s DNA.

The authors have developed CAD inhibitors and are testing what inhibiting CAD might mean for cancer therapy. While cancer cells become more sensitive to radiation damage after CAD inhibition, this ...

Radio waves from mobile phones harm body cells and damage DNA in laboratory conditions, according to a new study majority-funded by the European Union, researchers said on Monday.

The genetic differences between the dogs near the Chernobyl plant and those just 10 miles (16.09 km) away in Chernobyl city suggest that radiation exposure is having a profound effect.

Parents who were exposed to radiation from the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear reactor disaster did not pass genetic changes caused by radiation exposure on to their children, a new study has found.
