There is current interest in adopting the micronucleus test instead of metaphase analysis of
chromosomes to assess the in vitro genotoxic potential of chemical and physical agents. In …

Radiation therapy achieves its therapeutic effects by inducing apoptosis and non-apoptotic
cell death. The aim of this focused review is to highlight the aspects of the cell death …

Exposure of HeLa cells to 0, 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 μg/ml of guduchi extracts (methanol,
aqueous and methylene chloride) resulted in a dose-dependent but significant increase in …

Apoptosis is an important mechanism of cell death in tumours and it is seen both prior to and
following radiotherapy. In this study patients with proven carcinoma of the cervix had …

Purpose: The glucose analog and glycolytic inhibitor, 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG), has been
shown to differentially enhance the radiation damage in tumor cells by inhibiting the …

The aim of this study was to test whether radiation-induced bystander effects are involved in
the response of multicellular systems to targeted irradiation. A primary explant technique …

In recent years, the significance of apoptosis as a process in cell loss from normal tissue and
tumours has been critically reviewed. In addition, the general lack of a correlation between …

The effect of naringin, a grapefruit flavonone was studied on bleomycin‐induced genomic
damage and alteration in the survival of cultured V79 cells. Exposure of V79 cells to …

PURPOSE: Squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are characterized by moderate
radiosensitivity. We have established the human head & neck SCC cell line SKX, which …

Harmful cyanobacterial blooms are increasing and becoming a worldwide concern as many
bloom-forming cyanobacterial species can produce toxic metabolites named cyanotoxins …
