Similar results have been obtained when a plasmid bearing the luciferase gene, under the control of the PQS-containing promoter of the human NEIL3 gene, has been transfected in human glioblastoma cells induced with the cytokine TNFα to stimulate physiological 8-oxodG formation in the NEIL3 PQS-containing promoter [13]. This evidence concerns the gene NEIL3 and glioblastoma.
