Abstract:: |
Objective To explore the feasibility of applying comet-electrophoresis to determining the radiosensitivity of tumor cells. Methods The residual rates of DNA damage at 30 minute after 2 Gy gamma irradiation in four human tumor cell lines (WM9839, KB, LS-T-117, PC3M) were determined with the comet assay.The cell survival fraction of tumor cell after 2 Gy gamma ray-irradiation was determined with colonogenic assay. Results There were good correlations between cell survival fraction (SF2) and residual rate of DNA damage at 30 minute after 2 Gy gamma ray-irradiation in these four human tumor cell lines, separately. Conclusion The comet-electrophoresis assay may be used as a repaid and sensitive method for determining inherent radiosensitivities of tumor cells. |
