abstract:The Host-Cell Reactivation Assay or HCR is a technique used to measure the repair capacity of cell of a particular DNA alteration. The host cell is transfected with a damaged plasmid containing a reporter gene, usually luciferase, which has been deactivated due to the damage.
Conclusion: the hostcellreactivation is likely to be a helpful indicator for predict prognosisofcancer for the individuals with highly genetic sensitivity to cancer.
