Kinetics of antiproton induced γ-H2AX foci.
(a) The mean number of foci/cell/Gy was quantified in cells exposed to X-rays, 126 MeV antiprotons (in plateau or mid-SOBP), 62 MeV protons (proximal to or in the middle of the SOBP) and 62 MeV/u carbon ions (70 or 150 keV/μm. The data are presented as the mean of three independent experiments, normalized to sham irradiated controls. Error bars represent the standard error. (b) The full-width at half maximum (FWHM, μm) were calculated for foci in 30 nuclei of each group. (c) The foci resolution kinetics was plotted as a measure of DNA damage repair. Foci were scored in >100 nuclei per slide. The data presented are the mean and standard error.
