The radioresponsiveness of human tumours and the initial slope of the cell survival curve.

چکیده
Published data on the inherent radiosensitivity of human tumour cells has been analysed in order to reexamine the relationship between the initial slope of the cell survival curve and clinical radioresponsiveness. A clear positive correlation between these parameters is demonstrated. The surviving fraction at 2 Gy is shown to give good discrimination between resistant and sensitive tumour types.

A Quantitative Study of the Effect of Electroporation on the Electropermeability and Cell Survival
Introduction: Electroporation is a practical technique used to transport the molecules across the cell membrane. The utilization of fluorescent molecules is the method widely used to evaluate the electropermeability of cell membrane as a result of pulse application. It is also possible to use mathematical methods to predict the changes caused in cell electropermeability as a result of the chang...
