Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine cigarette smoking not only induces O6-alkylguanine lesions, it inhibits the repair of these adducts by MGMT, O6-alkylguanine adducts are well established carcinogenic lesions and decreased repair of such lesions may increase susceptibility to lung cancer in smokers Homo sapiens
