Radiation induced apoptosis and initial DNA damage are inversely related in locally advanced breast cancer patients
24 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: DNA-damage assays, quantifying the initial number of DNA double-strand breaks induced by radiation, have been proposed as a predictive test for radiation-induced toxicity. Determination of radiation-induced apoptosis in peripheral blood lymphocytes by flow cytometry analysis has also been proposed as an approach for predicting normal tissue responses following radiotherapy. The aim of the present...
