Abstract excerpt
In this study, the relationships between cellular oxygen enhancement ratios (OER) and nucleotide excision repair capability were examined using the UV20 mutant cell line (which has a defective ERCC1 gene). Using a clonogenic survival assay, the OER for the killing of wild-type AA8 cells was 3.2 +/- 0.1, whereas that for UV20 cells was only 2.35 +/- 0.05; the decreased OER of UV20 cells was the result of their...
