Programmed cell death or apoptosis is a widespread biological phenomenon. Apoptosis is
characterized by typical cell features such as membrane blebbing, chromatin condensation …

DNA damage is commonly measured at the level of individual cells using the so-called
comet assay (single-cell gel electrophoresis). As the frequency of DNA breaks increases, so …

Background The neutral comet assay was devised to measure double‐stranded DNA
breaks, but it has also been used to measure apoptosis based on its characteristic DNA …

The polyacetylene falcarinol, isolated from carrots, has been shown to be protective against
chemically induced colon cancer development in rats, but the mechanisms are not fully …

The phenomenon of atypical DNA comets observed in experiments using DNA-comet assay
is described and illustrated. The current hypotheses explaining the nature of atypical DNA …

Carbolines, azaheterocyclic amines derived from indoleamines, have various biological
activities, such as neurotoxicity of β-carbolines and potent mutagenicity of γ-carbolines. In …

Background and purpose: We have investigated whether the protective role of the G2
checkpoint has increasing importance when the p53-dependent G1 checkpoint is …

The alkaline comet assay is able to identify in individual cells DNA strand breaks associated
with different processes. Topoisomerase inhibitors, some of which are used as …
