Quantification of single-strand DNA lesions caused by the topoisomerase II poison etoposide using single DNA molecule imaging

Abstract excerpt

DNA-damaging agents, such as radiation and chemotherapy, are common in cancer treatment, but the dosing has proven to be challenging, leading to severe side effects in some patients. Hence, to be able to personalize DNA-damaging chemotherapy, it is important to develop fast and reliable methods to measure the resulting DNA damage in patient cells. Here, we demonstrate how single DNA molecule imaging using...
