Detection of Individual Differences in Radiation-Induced Apoptosis of Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes in Normal Individuals, Ataxia Telangiectasia Homozygotes and Heterozygotes, and Breast Cancer Patients after Radiotherapy

摘要

Quantification of radiation-induced apoptosis in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) has been proposed as a possible screening test for cancer-prone individuals and also for the prediction of normal tissue responses after radiotherapy. We have used
