The LEA rat was established from a Long-Evans rat closed colony as the control strain of the LEC rat, which is reported to exhibit several mutant phenotypes such as hepatic disorder (hts), blockage of the T cell differentiation (thid) and X-ray hypersensitivity (xhs1 and xhs2). Here we report that the LEA rat is hypersensitive to X-rays to a similar degree as the LEC rat, although it is normal with respect to the...
