Abstract excerpt
To characterize further the nature of the defects underlying the differential radiosensitivities of the Chinese hamster ovary cell lines NM2, EM9, and UV41, we compared the abilities of anoxia and of the thiol WR-1065 to protect these mutants and their parent cell line, AA8, from the lethal effects of gamma-radiation. Wide differences in oxygen enhancement ratios (OERs) for cell killing were observed in the...
