Quantitative relationships for radiation induced chromosome instability: data analysis

Abstract

The experimental observations demonstrate that different cell lines reveal various shape of dynamic curves for radiation-induced chromosomal instability (RICI). We analyzed our own and published data on RICI for three cell lines, CHO-K1, V79 and TK6, on the basis of the mechanistic RICI model. We demonstrate that all three dynamic curves can be successfully described by the proposed model with partially cell line specific parameters.
