Analysis of the methylation of peripheral blood repeat elements in aging mice 420 days following irradiation with 10-rays.

<p>The Net Temperature Shift (NTS) of L1, B1 and IAP repeat elements from PB DNA isolated from C57Bl/6 mice at −3, 297 and 420 days post-irradiation with sham (white box; <i>n</i> = 17) or 10 mGy X-rays (grey box; <i>n</i> = 15) was assessed by high resolution melt analysis following genomic DNA extraction, bisulphite modification and amplification with L1, B1 and IAP primers.
