Mechanisms of radiation leukaemogenesis, characterisation of haematopoietic stem cells and modulation of risk

Abstract:

Haematopoietic bone marrow cells are amongst the most sensitive to ionising radiation (IR), initially resulting in cell death or genotoxicity that may later lead to leukaemia development, most frequently Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML). The target cells for radiation-induced Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (rAML) are believed to lie in the haematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) compartment. Using the inbred strain CBA/Ca as a murine model of rAML, progress has been made in understanding the ...
