Six human soft-tissue sarcoma and 14 glioma cell lines, exhibiting considerable differences in radioresponsiveness and histological grade of differentiation of the parental tumour, were examined with respect to apoptosis development after irradiation with @Co y-rays. After test doses of 6 and 25 Gy,

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the radiation sensitivity of human soft tissue sarcoma cell lines in vitro and to compare with that of human breast carcinoma and glioblastoma cell lines. The intrinsic radiation sensitivity parameters of seven human soft tissue sarcomas and eight breast carc
Intermediate grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (IGNHL) is generally considered a radiosensitive tumor that can be controlled with moderate radiation doses. Cell-survival curves of cell lines derived from IGNHL have been typically described to exhibit small or no shoulder, implying inability to accumulate
Malignant mesothelioma is a tumor arising from serous surfaces and often related to asbestos exposure. Malignant mesothelioma is resistant to various forms of therapy. Radiotherapy, surgery or chemotherapy only slightly improve prognosis. IFN-y produces complete or partial responses in stage-I patie
Explanted cells from salivary gland tumors are particularly difficult to propagate in vitro and not efficiently immortalized by agents such as simian virus 40. Human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16) has been widely used to transform cells of epithelial origin, but its use for salivary gland cell transforma
The use of well-characterized human lung cancer cell lines has allowed for new opportunities in preclinical and clinical drug evaluation. Development of semiautomated tests of in vitro cytotoxicity such as the MTT assay, which utilizes the formazan salt 3-(4,~-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,S-diphenyltetra
