One of the current hypotheses concerning the role of bystander effects in biological systems is that they are protective because they terminate division in cells with collateral or possibly pre-existing DNA damage that is not properly repaired. Following the logic of this hypothesis led us to consider that cell lines that are repair deficient should have larger than usual bystander effects. To test this, several...
