I think "exposure" probably is too much of a vague word, when trying to pin-point exact reasons for Lucrecia's lack of degredation. I sort of imagine the situation to be like if there was a mutation in a baby's genes, for example, if Down's Syndrome was a result in the baby, then that mutation wouldn't be passed on to the mother. If the child has Down's Syndrome, the mother wont miraculously develop into a sufferer. Similarly, even if Sephiroth is developing into a spawn of Jenova, that doesn't mean it'll effect Lucrecia in the same way.
In the case of Gillian, she was injected with the cells directly and Angeal was born with the genes, which is what I meant when I said 'exposed' - in hindsight, it probably wasn't the best choice of terminology.
I honestly don't believe that Angeal was degrading - while the wing is the sign of those injected with Jenova's cells, I had always assumed that his was white to represent the purity within him, as opposed to Genesis' black wing [Sephiroth is exempt from this due to aforementioned reasons]. He only wanted Zack to end his life in order to release himself from the belief that he was a monster.
At least, this is how I've justified it in my own mind.

No, he's looking for Jenova's head. xD
