Keratinocytes with DNA Aberration Induced by UVB Become Susceptible to Ferroptosis

Keratinocytes are key epidermal cells that are highly susceptible to ultraviolet (UV)-induced damage, which can lead to DNA mutations and the development of malignancies. In parallel, UV radiation induces lipid peroxidation (LPO), potentially facilitating the activation of ferrop...
