Abstract excerpt
An ionizing radiation resistant derivative was obtained from the mouse P19H22 (aprt hemizygote) embryonal carcinoma cell line by repeated exposure to 137Cs gamma radiation. Ionizing radiation resistance in the 6Gy-R cell line was not correlated with a failure to undergo cell cycle arrest or a los...
