Abstract
The clonogenic potential of the progeny of irradiated cells was tested in vitro by replating irradiated cultures after various times, allowing between five and over 25 subsequent divisions to take place after irradiation. Whereas the plating efficiency of surviving Chinese hamster cells was not decreased, in C3H10T1/2 cells a dose-dependent but slight decrease in plating efficiency was observed even after the longest follow-up period. These data do not contradict the prevalent hypothesis in radiobiology that the proliferation potential of a clonogenic cell surviving after irradiation is not significantly different from that of a non-irradiated cell.
