Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S., while DNA-damaging UVB radiation from the sun remains the major environmental risk factor. Reducing skin cancer incidence is becoming an urgent issue. The energy-sensing enzyme 5’-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a key role in the regulatio...
