Nuclear AIM2‐Like Receptors Drive Genotoxic Tissue Injury by Inhibiting DNA Repair

Abstract Radiation is an essential preparative procedure for bone marrow (BM) transplantation and cancer treatment. The therapeutic efficacy of radiation and associated toxicity varies from patient to patient, making it difficult to prescribe an optimal patient‐specific irradiation dose. The molecul...
