Cell death and DNA damage in methotrexate-treated HeLa cells

The cancer chemotherapeutic agent methotrexate inhibits the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase leading to a depletion of cellular reduced folates and inhibition of thymidylate synthase. A predicted consequence of this depletion of cellular thymidylate residues is that the nucleotide dUMP may be incorpor...
