| Resumo |
Short term exposure to low levels of arsenic in human cells increased the cells' capacity to repair its DNA. In turn, cells became resistant to the toxic effects of UV radiation. However prolonged increases in principal repair proteins may actually lead to cancerous effects by destabilizing DNA repair. |
