Radiation responses of Sf9, a highly radioresistant lepidopteran insect cell line
1 Apr 2004
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Lepidopteran insect cells are known to exhibit very high radioresistance. Although very effective DNA excision-repair has been proposed as a contributing factor, a detailed understanding of insect cell radiation responses has not yet been obtained. Therefore, the study was carried out to understand the in vitro radiation responses of Sf9 lepidopteran cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Exponentially growing...
