Effect of Cell Cycle on Recovery from Radiation Damage in the Mouse Liver

Nature volume 217, pages 180–182 (1968)Cite this article

Abstract

I HAVE studied the chromosomal aberrations which are induced in mouse hepatocytes by single and fractionated doses of X-rays given at various times before or after surgical partial hepatectomy. The data presented here show that the different phases of the cell cycle possibly differ not only in their sensitivity to chromosomal damage by radiation but also in their ability to recover from such damage.
