Abstract excerpt
To assess the role of expression of the retinoblastoma (RB) gene on the sensitivity of cells to the cytotoxic effects of ionizing radiation, we transfected a normal RB gene into cells of RB+ and RB- osteosarcoma cell lines and an RB- prostate carcinoma line and studied the radiosensitivity of the...
