Cell Cycle Regulation and Apoptotic Responses of the Embryonic Chick Retina by Ionizing Radiation
Ionizing radiation (IR) exerts deleterious effects on the developing brain, since proliferative neuronal progenitor cells are highly sensitive to IR-induced DNA damage. Assuming a radiation response that is comparable to mammals, the chick embryo would represent a lower vertebrate model system that...
