Apoptosis and age-dependant induction of nuclear and mitochondrial etheno-DNA adducts in Long-Evans Cinnamon (LEC) rats: enhanced DNA damage by dietary curcumin upon copper accumulation.

abstract：:Reactive intermediates (ultimate mutagens/carcinogens) generated by alkylating agents are unstable and difficult to characterize by chemical means. We have used a genetic system to distinguish the in vivo interactions of eight carcinogenic methylating agents and five ethylating agents by the patterns of induced mutati...
