Screening of cytoprotectors against methotrexate-induced cytogenotoxicity from bioactive phytochemicals
As a well known anti-neoplastic drug, the cytogenotoxicity of methotrexate (MTX) has received more attention in recent years. To develop a new cytoprotector to reduce the risk of second cancers caused by methotrexate, an umu test combined with a micronucleus assay was employed to estimate the cytopr...
