Effect of N-acetylcysteine on Radiation-induced Genotoxicity and Cytotoxicity in Rat Bone Marrow
1 Jan 2009
Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study is to evaluate the potential radioprotective effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) against genotoxicity and cytotoxicity. The effect of WR-2721, as a representative of clinically used radioprotector, was compared with that of NAC, using the chromosomal aberration (CA) and micronucleus (MN) test systems in the irradiated rat's femoral bone marrow cells. We also investigated the mitotic index...
