Germ Cell and Dose-Dependent DNA Damage Measured by the Comet Assay in Murine Spermatozoaa after Testicular X-Irradiation1
1 Sept 2002
Abstract excerpt
The single-cell gel electrophoresis (Comet) assay has been widely used to measure DNA damage in human sperm in a variety of physiological and pathological conditions. We investigated the effects of in vivo radiation, a known genotoxin, on spermatogenic cells of the mouse testis and examined sperm collected from the vas deferens using the neutral Comet assay. Irradiation of differentiating spermatogonia with...
