Polymorphism in glutathione S-transferase P1 is associated with susceptibility to chemotherapyinduced leukemia [PDF]
, 2001 Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) detoxify potentially mutagenic and toxic DNA-reactive electrophiles, including metabolites of several chemotherapeutic agents, some of which are suspected human carcinogens.

Microsomal superoxide anion production and NADPH-oxidation in a series of 22 aziridinylbenzoquinones [PDF]
, 1989 Several 2,5-bis(1-aziridinyl)-1,4-benzoquinones (BABQs) can be activated to alkylating species by reduction of the quinone moiety. On the other hand, cytotoxicity of these compounds can be induced by redox cycling.

DNA Damage Induced by Alkylating Agents and Repair Pathways
Journal of Nucleic Acids, 2010 The cytotoxic effects of alkylating agents are strongly attenuated by cellular DNA repair processes, necessitating a clear understanding of the repair mechanisms. Simple methylating agents form adducts at N- and O-atoms.
