Cultured lymphocytes from 9 patients with clinically different types of xeroderma pigmentosum were exposed to ultraviolet light at 24 h. An increased rate of sister chromatid exchanges were observed in 6 patients (128--148% increase in three, 34--51% in three), but not in three patients with deSanct

The effect of benzpyrene on sister chromatid exchange was determined in PHA-stimulated lymphocytes of 18 patients with lung cancer and 11 controls without cancer or bronchopulmonary diseases. Patients and controls did not differ either with respect to the spontaneous rate of sister chromatid exchang
Experiments have been performed to determine whether human lymphocytes in primary cultures can show an "adaptive" response to the induction of cellular lesions (manifested as a production of sister chromatid exchanges, SCEs) as previously found in bacteria and established human and mammalian cell li
