Abstract excerpt
The goal of this study was to create an in vitro cell culture system that captures essential features of the in vivo erythroid micronucleus (MN) genotoxicity assay, thus enabling increased throughput and controlled studies of the hematopoietic DNA damage response. We show that adult bone marrow (BM) cultures respond to erythropoietin, the principal hormone that stimulates erythropoiesis, with physiological...
