damage DNA molecules in tumor cells by a yet not completely understood plethora of …

The complex physical and chemical interactions between DNA and 0–3 eV electrons
released by UV photoionization can lead to the formation of various lesions such as base …

DNA is effectively damaged by radiation, which can on the one hand lead to cancer and is
on the other hand directly exploited in the treatment of tumor tissue. DNA strand breaks are …

Substitution of the thymidine moiety in DNA by C5-substituted halogenated thymidine
analogues causes significant augmentation of radiation damage in living cells. However, the …

8-Thiomethyladenine (ASCH3), a potentially radiosensitizing modified nucleobase, has
been synthesized in a reaction between 8-thioadenine and methyl iodide. Despite favorable …
