Main point added to their estimation is quantitative data on oxidative damage to DNA precursormolecules, such as oxo dGTP and their cellular decomposition efficiency. If the precursor damages are taken into accout, the amount of initial endogenous DNA damage would be increased by a factor of 100-10000.}, pages = {315--317}, title = {Radiation-induced versus endogenous DNA damage: commentary on Pollycove and Feinendegen}, volume = {22}, year = {2003} }
