“…Far more biologically relevant is the Comet assay, which visualizes DNA damage in single cells arising from the exposure to various combinations of antioxidants and ROS [ 28 , 29 ].. Cells are embedded in agarose coated slides and subjected to electrolysis, which causes the negatively charged DNA to migrate towards the anode.…”

“…Comparison of o-, m-and p-iodoHoechst with respect to DNA strand breakage in plasmid DNA indicated remarkable differences in photopotency [13]. The ortho isomer was found to be more efficient than the meta and para isomers [14,15]. Moreover, the photo-induced cytotoxicity by these analogues in K562 cells also displays similar results [16].…”

“…Studies have highlighted the photopotency of directly iodinated Hoechst 33258 (prepared by direct iodination of the commercially available Hoechst 33258) and in particular the three structural isomers designated ortho-, meta-, and para-iodo-Hoechst reflecting the position of the iodine substitution on the terminal ring. The ortho-analogue-subsequently referred to as UV A Sens (Figure 1)-has shown remarkable photoefficiency, approximately 1000-fold greater potency than that of the clinically used psoralens [18,19]. Upon UV A irradiation, UV A Sens is rapidly dehalogenated to phenyl Hoechst, creating a carbon-centered radical which is analogous to the uracilyl radical produced from the halogenated DNA precursors [17].…”
