Wortmannin, a Radiation Sensitizer, Enhances the Radiosensitivity of WKAH Rat Cells but not That of LEC Rat Cells

[摘要] References(36)Cited-By(2)No significant cytotoxic effect was observed in WKAH rat cells by the treatment of wortmannin, a radiation sensitizer, at concentrations lower than 30 μM for 24 hr. The relative surviving fractions of LEC rat cells were slightly, but significantly, lower than those of WKAH rat cells at each concentration of wortmannin. When the wortmannin-treated WKAH rat cells were X-irradiated, the relative surviving fractions decreased in a wortmannin concentration-dependent manner. On the contrary, no significant difference was observed between the survival curves of untreated and wortmannin-treated LEC rat cells after X-irradiation.
