Abstract excerpt
A new assay is described that measures the numbers (n) of endogenous long-term repopulating cells (eLTRC) surviving sublethal irradiation. The assay is based on analysis of variances of Pgk-1 phenotypes within groups of sublethally irradiated Pgk-1(a/b) mice. When ln n is plotted as a function of dose, the radiosensitivity (D0) is the negative reciprocal of the slope and the gamma-intercept is N or total numbers...
