Abstract
We are interested in the contribution of cisplatin- (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum, cDDP) and carboplatin- (cis-diammine (1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylato)-platinum(II), CBDCA) induced DNA modifications to the cytotoxic and other biological effects of these drugs. An antiserum against in vitro cDDP modified DNA was therefore applied in an immunocytochemical double peroxidase assay. It proved to be possible to visualize cDDP-DNA and CBDCA-DNA binding both in tissues and cultured cells (1).
