Induction of lung-specific DNA damage by metabolically methylated arsenics via the production of free radicals.

To clarify the genotoxicity of inorganic arsenics, we focused on the genotoxic effect of metabolically methylated arsenics in mammals. Oral administration to mice of dimethylarsinic acid (DMAA), a major metabolite of inorganic arsenics, induced lung-specific DNA damage, i.e., DNA single-strand break...
