Effect of 5-azacytidine (5-azaC) on the induction of chromatid aberrations (CA) and sister-chromatid exchanges (SCE)
Abstract
Experiments were carried out using human lymphocytes from a male donor in order to test the action of 5-azaC treatment on the induction of SCE and chromatid aberrations. The 5-azaC was found to increase the frequency of both baseline and MMC-induced SCEs. Using the same 5-azaC treatment conditions it was found that the frequency of X-ray-induced CA did not increase.
