Astragaloside IV ameliorates radiation-induced senescence via antioxidative mechanism

Objectives Ageing is a universal and gradual process of organ deterioration. Radiation induces oxidative stress in cells, which leads to genetic damage and affects cell growth, differentiation and senescence. Astragaloside (AS)-IV has antioxidative, anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory properties. Methods To study the protective mechanism of AS-IV on radiation-induced brain cell senescence, we constructed a radiation-induced brain cell ageing...
