Why Genetic Effects of Radiation are Observed in Mice but not in Humans

20 Dec 2017

Abstract excerpt

Genetic effects from radiation have been observed in a number of species to date. However, observations in humans are nearly nonexistent. In this review, possible reasons for the paucity of positive observations in humans are discussed. Briefly, it appears likely that radiation sensitivity for the induction of mutations varies among different genes, and that the specific genes that were used in the past with the...
