✦ Synopsis


Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is a DNA-bind-induced apoptosis. After VP16 treatment with PARP ing protein involved in cellular response to various inhibition, a reduction in the depletion of the prolifgenotoxic agents. To understand the role of PARP erative compartment and a G2/M phase arrest are in the mechanisms which lead from specific DNA observed. Therefore, the increase in cell viability damage to cell death, we studied the effects of PARP and the reduction in chromosome damage may inhibition in human lymphoblasts damaged with both be the result of a prolonged DNA repair time. bleomycin (BLM) and VP16.

The activity of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is activated upon recognition of DNA strand breaks by its DNA-binding domain and the stimulation of this nuclear enzyme seems to be an early response of cells exposed to a variety of different DNA-damaging agents.

## Abstract Continuously generated hydrogen peroxide (H~2~O~2~) inhibits typical apoptosis and instead initiates a caspase‐independent, apoptosis‐inducing factor (AIF)‐mediated pyknotic cell death. This may be related to H~2~O~2~‐mediated DNA damage and subsequent ATP depletion, although the exact
