Abstract

The ability of aurum polyacrylate (aurumacryl) to cause changes in the DNA structure of tumor cells (culture of MCF-7 human breast cancer cells) was studied. It was established that the molecular mechanism under- lying the effects of aurumacryl on tumor cells is associated with the induction of single-strand breaks and cross-links in the DNA molecule. At the same time, it was shown that aurumacryl can reduce the number of spontaneous, or irradiated, DNA double-strand breaks in MCF-7 cells.
