Induction of Transcription of "Immediate Early Genes" by Low-Dose Ionizing Radiation
1 Sept 1995
Abstract excerpt
The induction of transcription of specific genes after exposure to ionizing radiation has previously been reported after lethal doses of radiation (2-50 Gy). Little attention has been focused on expression of "immediate early genes" after low doses of ionizing radiation, where cell viability remains high. This dose range (0.25-2.0 Gy) is above the diagnostic dose level but at or below the doses typical for a...
