SAN ANTONIO, Texas, June 27 -- The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio issued the following news release:
Our cells are constantly dividing, and as they do, the DNA molecule - our genetic code - sometimes gets broken. DNA has twin strands, and a break in both is considered especially dangerous. This kind of double-strand break can lead to genome rearrangements that are hallmarks of cancer cells, said James Daley, PhD, of the Long School of Medicine at The Univer . . .
