Toxicology, the study of the adverse effects of chemicals on living organisms, intersects with Gorlin Syndrome through the investigation of potential environmental triggers and chemical exposures that may exacerbate the condition. Individuals with Gorlin Syndrome are particularly sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can accelerate the development of basal cell carcinomas. Understanding the interaction between genetic predisposition and environmental factors is a key area of study in environmental toxicology.
