Apoptosis by dietary factors: the suicide solution for delaying cancer growth.

abstract：:3-Methyladenine is one of the major products formed by reaction of a large number of environmental methylating agents with DNA in vivo and in vitro. In spite of the rapid spontaneous depurination of this base an enzyme, 3-methyladenine DNA glycosylase, has been shown to catalyse its excision. The relevance of this enz...
