Attenuated DNA damage responses and increased apoptosis characterize human hematopoietic stem cells exposed to irradiation

Abstract Failure to precisely repair DNA damage in self-renewing Hematopoietic Stem and early Progenitor Cells (HSPCs) can disrupt normal hematopoiesis and promote leukemogenesis. Although HSPCs are widely considered a target of ionizing radiation (IR)-induced hematopoietic injury, definitive data r...
