Radiation sensitivity and the DNA damage response in planarian stem cells
<p>Ionizing radiation (IR) can inflict various types of DNA lesions which if not repaired, can induce genomic instability and subsequent oncogenic transformation. Potentially immortal and highly regenerative animals are hypothesized to have enhanced genome maintenance mechanisms to protect the...
