Benzo[a]pyrene increases DNA double strand break repair in vitro and in vivo: A possible mechanism for benzo[a]pyrene-induced toxicity

•Examination of BaP-induced DNA double strand breaks and repair activation was investigated.•BaP-induced increased homologous recombinational DNA repair in CHO 3–6 cells.•BaP-induced increased positive staining for recombination events in the lung and thymus of exposed pKZ1 animals.•BaP decreased ge...
