Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between apoptotic activity and clonogenic radiosensitivity in vitro using an insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) signaling model, which is known to exert tumorigenic and antiapoptotic effects. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We used mouse embryo fibroblast cell lines expressing either human IGF-IR [R+(Wt) and R+] or the marker gene alone...
