Abstract
The correlation between cell survival curve and dose response curve of MN frequency following irradiations was studied using cytokinesis-block method. Both dose response curves were analyzed by linear quadratic model, i.e. SF = exp (-alpha D-beta D2) and MN frequency = aD + bD2 + C. A good correlation between alpha/beta and a/b ratios was observed in repeated paired experiments (= 0.97). When the cells were treated with BUdR, alpha-type radiosensitizer, a value in dose response curve of MN frequency increased but b value did not. These data present that MN frequency assay using cytokinesis-block method is available as a tool of rapid assay of radiosensitivity of cells.Mesh:
