Abstract

Treatment of colon cancer cells with MNNG causes DNA damage with reduced telomeric signals in a p53-dependent manner, but increased cell cycle arrest in S-G2/M by both p53-dependent and independent mechanisms. Results also indicate that cellular levels of TRF2 may play a critical role in MNNG-induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of colon cancer cells.
