An Association between the Radiation-Induced Arrest of G<sub>2</sub>-Phase Cells and Low-Dose Hyper-Radiosensitivity: A Plausible Underlying Mechanism?
1 Jul 2003
Abstract excerpt
The survival of asynchronous and highly enriched G1-, S- and G2-phase populations of Chinese hamster V79 cells was measured after irradiation with 60Co gamma rays (0.1-10 Gy) using a precise flow cytometry-based clonogenic survival assay. The high-dose survival responses demonstrated a conventional relationship, with G2-phase cells being the most radiosensitive and S-phase cells the most radioresistant. Below 1...
