## Abstract Although epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that a high intake of vegetables containing Ξ²βcarotene lowers the risk of cancer, recent intervention studies have revealed that Ξ²βcarotene supplementation to smokers resulted in a high incidence of lung cancer. We hypothesized that Ξ²βcar
Quinone-induced cell death is often attributed to oxidative stress during which the formation of DNA strand breaks is thought to play an important role. In this study, extensive DNA damage was observed in human chronic myelogenous leukemic cells (K562) exposed for 15 minutes to low concentrations (1
