Abstract excerpt
Previous results from studies performed in three European cities suggested a decrease in DNA repair efficiency observed in lymphocytes of subjects occupationally exposed to environmental carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (c-PAHs). The aim of this study was to investigate whether a relationship between exposure to environmental c-PAHs and cellular vulnerability to the induction of DNA damage and its...
