“…These results obtained with cells in vitro as well as literature reports on the beneficial effects of pantothenic acid and its derivatives in various pathologies [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] prompted us to investigate whether these compound may protect whole animals against low doses of γ-radiation. One of the mechanisms of the damaging effects of ionising radiation is the generation of ROS [27,28].…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
