    Genome wide screen identifies microsatellite markers associated with acute adverse effects following radiotherapy in cancer patients

    The response of normal tissues in cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy varies, possibly due to genetic differences underlying variation in radiosensitivity.

    Screening for Aging-Dependent Point Mutations in mtDNA

    Recently, clear evidence has been obtained in our laboratory of a large accumulation of specific point mutations at the same critical control sites for replication in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of human fibrobl...

    Brief Communication: Role of Nuclear Background and in vivo Environment in Variable Segregation Behavior of the Aging-Dependent T414G Mutation at Critical Control Site for Human Fibroblast mtDNA Replication

    Previous work had shown a large accumulation (up to 50% of mtDNA) of a noninherited T414G transversion at a critical control site for mtDNA replication in skin fibroblasts from the majority of human subjects a...
