## Abstract Ellipticine is a potent antineoplastic agent whose mode of action is considered to be based mainly on DNA intercalation and/or inhibition of topoisomerase II. Recently, we found that ellipticine also forms covalent DNA adducts __in vitro__ and that the formation of the major adduct is d

## Abstract Diethylstilbestrol (DES) is a human carcinogen, based on sufficient epidemiological evidence. DES is mainly metabolized to its catechol, 3′‐hydroxyDES (3′‐OH‐DES), which can further oxidize to DES‐3′,4′‐quinone (DES‐3′,4′‐Q). Similarly to estradiol‐3,4‐quinone, the reaction of DES‐3′,4′
