Abstract excerpt
Cultured mammalian cell systems are useful for examining the quantitative effects of mutagens and antimutagens on cell survival and gene mutations and the mechanisms of the interaction of two chemicals in the process of mutation induction. In the present article, the antimutagenic effects of vitamins C, E, and A, and derivatives of vitamin C on EMS-induced 6TG-resistant mutations in Chinese hamster V79 cells were...
