    Glossary DNA damage

    alterations in DNA structure that disrupt normal function

    DNA damage refers to alterations in the DNA structure that can disrupt its normal function. These changes can be caused by various factors, including environmental agents like UV radiation, chemicals, or even normal cellular processes. If not properly repaired, DNA damage can lead to mutations, which may result in diseases such as cancer or contribute to aging.
