DNA adducts and lung cancer risk: a prospective study.

TL;DR: It is suggested that leukocyte DNA adducts may predict lung cancer risk of never-smokers and a positive association was found between DNAAdducts and ozone (O3) concentration, which indicates a possible role for photochemical smog in determining DNA damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
