Amifostine protects mouse liver against radiation-induced autophagy blockage

Amifostine protects mouse liver against radiation-induced autophagy blockage

Background/Aim: Amifostine is the only selective normal tissue cytoprotector, approved for the protection against platinum toxicities and radiotherapy-induced xerostomia. Free radical scavenger and DNA repair activities have been attributed to the drug. Materials and Methods: We investigated the eff...
