Down-regulation of DNA repair in human CD34+progenitor cells corresponds to increased drug sensitivity and apoptotic response
1 Aug 2002
Abstract excerpt
Although DNA repair processes have been shown to considerably modulate the cytotoxic effects of alkylating agents, little information is available on the role of these mechanisms in chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression. Therefore, we have analyzed in detail the DNA repair capacity of primary human hematopoietic cells from cord blood (CB) or bone marrow (BM) by 2 functional assays, the immunocytologic assay (ICA)...
