Effects of antioxidants on streptozotocin-induced clastogenesis in mammalian and insect cells

The effects of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and the hydroxyl radical scavenger mannitol (MAN) on the clastogenesis induced by STZ in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) and mosquito cells were investigated. The addition of liposome-entrapped SOD, CAT and MAN to both cel...

Zusammenfassung:The effects of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and the hydroxyl radical scavenger mannitol (MAN) on the clastogenesis induced by STZ in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) and mosquito cells were investigated. The addition of liposome-entrapped SOD, CAT and MAN to both cell lines caused a significant decrease in the yield of STZ-induced chromosome aberrations ( p
