## BACKGROUND. It is generally known that replication errors (RERs) at microsatellite loci detected in human malignancies reflect a genetic instability that is caused by abnormalities of DNA mismatch repair system and underlie human carcinogenesis. The authors analyzed RERs in precancerous lesions

## Abstract We have studied the rate of DNA synthesis, cell cycle distribution, formation of Ξ³βH2AX, and Rad51 nuclear foci and association of Rad51 with the nuclear matrix after treatment of HeLa cells with the interstrand crosslinking agent mitomycin C (MMC) in the presence of the kinase inhibito
## Abstract Human herpes virus type 6 (HHVβ6) DNA has been suggested to be a cofactor to human papillomavirus (HPV) in cervical cancer. In a crossβsectional study, we investigated the association between HHVβ6 DNA detected in cervical brushings and highβgrade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL)
The emergence of tumour cells resistant to chemotherapeutic treatment is a major confounding factor in anticancer treatment. Many chemotherapeutic drugs are DNA damaging agents. Resistance to DNA damage can be acquired via a plethora of different mechanisms, including, surprisingly, loss of DNA mism
