January 13, 2009

MIT researchers found that mice with normal DNA repair systems had more retinal degeneration upon exposure to environmental toxic agents than mice lacking a certain DNA repair system. At right, the cross section of the retina from a mouse lacking the repair system is normal. At left, mice with too much DNA repair have greatly reduced numbers of cells in the OPL (outer plexiform layer) and ONL (ou...
