Title: HYDROGEN PEROXIDE, CATALASE, GLUTATHIONE PEROXIDASE, QUINONES, NORDIHYDROGUAIARETIC ACID, AND PHOSPHOPYRIDINE NUCLEOTIDES IN RELATION TO X-RAY ACTION ON CANCER CELLS

DOI:https://doi.org/10.2307/3583686· OSTI ID:4701022

Data are reviewed on the relationship between hydrogen peroxide and x radiation effects in formed cancer cells. Topics discussed include the interrelationships between hydrogen peroxide, catalase, glutathione, peroxidase, quinones, nordihydroguaiaretic acid, and phosphopyridine nucleotides in relation to metabolism in irradiated cancer cells. The metabolic sites of action of chemotherapeutic agents and metabolic and biochemical mechanisms involved in the action of x radiation are considered. (C.H.)
