A derivative of vitamin B3 applied several days after exposure reduces lethality of severely irradiated mice

Abstract Most, if not all, of the hitherto tested substances exert more or less pronounced pro-survival effects when applied before or immediately after the exposure to high doses of ionizing radiation. In the present study we demonstrate for the first time that 1-methyl nicotinamide (MNA), a deriva...
