The extreme variety of genotoxic response to benzo[a]pyrene in three different human cell lines from three different organs.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are associated with occupational exposure and urban atmospheric pollution. Determination of the genotoxic properties of these compounds is thus of outmost importance. For this purpose a variety of cellular models have been widely used. Reliable results can how...
