No dose-dependence of DNA double-strand break misrejoining following α-particle irradiation
1 Jan 2000
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To investigate whether an explanation for the high effectiveness of densely ionizing radiation with regard to complex biological endpoints can be derived from measurements of radiation-induced double-strand break (DSB) misrejoining. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Misrejoining of radiation-induced DSB in normal human fibroblasts was determined by comparing hybridization analysis of large restriction fragments as...
