“…ARS induced cell death of different cell types in vitro, including the Chinese hamster ovary cell line, human vascular endothelial cells and human lymphocytes (Cheng et al, ; Li et al, ; Mota et al, ). In addition, a number of cancer cell lines were observed to respond to ARS by decreasing cell viability and increasing cell death (Greenshields, Shepherd, & Hoskin, ; Li et al, ; Pang, Qin, Wu, Wang, & Chen, ; Roh, Kim, Jang, & Shin, ). Similarly, incubation with ARS led to oxidative DNA damage, induction of DNA double‐strand breaks and increase of micronuclei (MN) frequency in both cancer cell lines and normal cells, including human lymphocytes (Aquino et al, ; Aquino, Ferreira, & Luis, ; Berdelle, Nikolova, Quiros, Efferth, & Kaina, ; Li et al, ; Mota et al, ; Wang et al, ).…”
