Protective Effect of CpG-Oligodeoxynucleotides Against Low- and High-LET Irradiation

Background/Aims: CpG-oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) are synthetic DNA sequences containing unmethylated cytosine-guanine motifs with potent immunomodulatory effects. Previous reports showed a powerful protective effect of CpG-ODN against the damage induced by low-LET γ-rays. In this study, we...
