Radiation-Induced Mammary Carcinogenesis in Rodent Models: What's Different from Chemical Carcinogenesis?
1 Jan 2009
Abstract excerpt
Ionizing radiation is one of a few well-characterized etiologic factors of human breast cancer. Laboratory rodents serve as useful experimental models for investigating dose responses and mechanisms of cancer development. Using these models, a lot of information has been accumulated about mammary gland cancer, which can be induced by both chemical carcinogens and radiation. In this review, we first list some...
