Figure 7. HZE particle radiation-associated increases in micro-nucleated cells.

Figure 7

(A) Representative microphotographs showing micro-nucleated cells in the brain, kidney, liver, lung, and spleen tissues from mice exposed to HZE particle radiation. Arrowheads point to the micronucleus in each region. (B) Histograms obtained from the double-blinded quantification of micro-nucleated cells from brain, kidney, liver, lung, and spleen tissues from mock-IR and HZE particle radiation-exposed mice, showing an HZE-associated significant increase in micronuclei in brain, kidney, and lung tissues.
