Advances in study of cellular and molecular mechanisms of radiation-induced CNS injury
-
Abstract
Understanding the mechanisms of radiation-induced CNS injury may help to develop strategies to increase the radiation tolerance and treat CNS injury induced by radiation.The article re-views the cellular mechanisms about neurons, oligodendrocytes, demyelination, vasculature and so on, and the molecular mechanisms of the apoptosis signal transduction and gene expression induced by radi-ation.
