From: Radiosensitivity in breast cancer assessed by the Comet and micronucleus assays

Effects of foregoing RT on the radiation response in vitro of cells from five breast cancer patients (017, 018, 019, 020 and 022, see Table 1) with normal clinical radiosensitivity assessed by the Comet assay. (A–C) The initial and the residual DNA damage, and the repair half-time constants, respectively. Data were averaged through 75 cells from a given individual per dose and time point. Blood samples were collected before, during (20 and 40 Gy) and after cessation (50–60 Gy) of RT. Bars for the means have been omitted for clarity.
