Radiation Effects and Radioprotection in MC3T3-E1 Mouse Calvarial Osteoblastic Cells

Abstract

This study reveals improved survival after irradiation in osteoblast-like cells treated with WR-1065 in vitro and corroborates previous findings from animal models. Further studies using this agent and similar drugs are important for devising strategies to prevent radiation-induced inhibition of craniofacial bone growth.
