Forensic Context

A study in mice demonstrated that the mir-34a is induced by ionizing radiation in a p53-dependent manner across multiple organs and is detectable and stable in serum for up to 48 hours post-exposure, with higher induction levels in young mice correlating with greater radio-sensitivity [Liu et al. DOI:10.7150/ijbs.7.221].
