Abstract excerpt
Using the 4,5',8-trimethylpsoralen in combination with the reirradiation protocol, we show that, in normal human lymphoblasts, the cytotoxic potential of photoinduced cross-links (CL) is higher than that of monoadducts (MA). In contrast to cytotoxicity, the significant increase in the proportion of CL, at a constant level of total adducts, had no effect on the induction of mutations at the HPRT locus. Comparison...
