Targeting of Rad51-dependent homologous recombination: implications for the radiation sensitivity of human lung cancer cell lines
1 Mar 2005
Abstract excerpt
The aim of the present work was to study the role of Rad51-dependent homologous recombination in the radiation response of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines. A dose- and time-dependent increase in the formation of Rad51 and gamma-H2AX foci with a maximum at about 4 and 1 h after irradiation, followed by a decrease, has been found. The relative fraction of cells with persisting Rad51 foci was 20-30% in...
