Protective Effect of Chrysin, a Dietary Flavone against Genotoxic and Oxidative Damage Induced by Mitomycin C in Balb/C Mice.

Anticancer drugs, such as Mitomycin C (MMC), can interact with biological molecules and cause genetic damage in normal cells. In this respect, we investigated the potential of chrysin, a flavone known as a potent scavenger of free radicals generated by anticancer agents, to protect mice against MMC-induced genotoxicity. The amount of DNA damage in the liver, kidney and bone marrow cells, in Balb/C mice treated with MMC (6 mg/kg, i.
