Consequences of Lethal-Whole-Body Gamma Radiation and Possible Ameliorative Role of Melatonin
Gamma radiation induces the generation of free radicals, leading to serious cellular damages in biological systems. Radioprotectors act as prophylactic agents that are administered to shield normal cells and tissues from the deleterious effects of radiation. Melatonin synergistically acts as an immu...
