Abstract excerpt
Carcinogen-DNA adduct levels in lung parenchyma (surgical specimens) and urothelial (exfoliated) cells of smokers, ex-smokers and non-smokers were investigated. DNA adducts were analysed by 32P-postlabelling and levels were compared with tissue-specific activity of cytochrome P450-related enzymes, or whenever possible, with metabolic phenotypes and other macromolecular adducts. Lung cancer patients who were...
