The photosensitizing activity of lumazine using 2′-deoxyguanosine 5′-monophosphate and HeLa cells as targets

Lumazines are an important family of heterocyclic compounds present in biological systems as biosynthetic precursors and/or products of metabolic degradation. Upon UV irradiation, the specific compound called lumazine (pteridine-2,4(1,3H)-dione) is able to generate singlet oxygen ( 1O2), which is on...
