Theory of Radiation Effect on Cell Populations in Intestinal Epithelium

Kinetics of Cell Populations in the Intestinal Epithelium of Mice after Partial-body Irradiations with X-rays and Neutrons

“…To reproduce the overshoot, we introduced a feedback term in the mathematical analysis . It was suggested that the overshoot was mathematically not reproduced without the feedback term (Sato et al 1971) . Tutton (1973) has found a heat-labile factor in crypts which inhibited proliferative activity .…”
