Studies on electron beam induced DNA damage and repair kinetics in lymphocytes by alkaline comet assay
Background: Exposure to ionizing radiation is known to induce oxidative stress followed by damage to critical biomolecules like lipids, proteins and DNA through radiolysis of cellular water. Since radiation has been widely used as an important tool in therapy of cancer, the detailed investigation regarding the DNA damage and repair kinetics would help to predict the radiation sensitivity of cel...

متن کاملOGG1 DNA Repair Gene Polymorphism As a Biomarker of Oxidative and Genotoxic DNA Damage
Background: Single nucleotide polymorphisms in 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1) gene modulates DNA repair capacity and functions as one of the first lines of protective mechanisms against 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) mutagenicity. OGG1-Cys326 gene polymorphism may decrease DNA repair function, causing oxidative stress due to higher oxidative DNA damage. The main purpose of this stu...
متن کاملDNA damage and repair in lymphocytes of normal individuals and cancer patients: studies by the comet assay and micronucleus tests.
A population study is reported in which the DNA damage induced by g-radiation (2 Gy) and the kinetics of the subsequent repair were estimated by the comet and micronucleus assays in isolated lymphocytes of 82 healthy donors and patients with head and neck cancer before radiotherapy. The parameters of background and radiation-induced DNA damage, rate of repair, and residual non-repaired damage w...
متن کاملDNA damage, repair and mutations
DNA damage, repair and mutations Harry Vrieling Introduction DNA contains the blueprint for the proper development, functioning and reproduction of organisms ranging from bacteria, low eukaryotes to vertebrates like man. It is therefore of extreme importance that both replication, i.e. the duplication of DNA, and the segregation of fully replicated DNA molecules (i.e. the chromosomes) over the ...
