Abstract excerpt
The lymphoblastoid cell lines WI-L2-NS and TK6 were derived from a non-clonal pool of cells taken from a human spleen. Despite their common background they exhibit marked differences in radiosensitivities; D0 values of 93 and 67 cGy have been reported for WI-L2-NS and TK6 cells respectively. We show here that this differential radiosensitivity is due to a decreased ability of the WI-L2-NS cell line to undergo...
