Research Abstract |
The DNA fragmentation in cell death is a well-known phenomenon, but its physiological significance has insufficiently investigated. We found the aggravated drug-induced liver injury in the mouse deleted one of the genes of DNA fragmentation proteins. The aggravation is due to the increase of oxidative stress. Thus, the DNA fragmentation in cell death is essential for scavenging dead cells and maintaining homeostasis by reducing oxidative stress.
