LET-Dependent Survival of Irradiated Normal Human Fibroblasts and Their Descendents
1 Jul 2006
Abstract excerpt
Evidence has accumulated showing that ionizing radiations persistently perturb genomic stability and induce delayed reproductive death in the progeny of survivors; however, the linear energy transfer (LET) dependence of these inductions has not been fully characterized. We have investigated the cell killing effectiveness of gamma rays (0.2 keV/microm) and six different beams of heavy-ion particles with LETs...
