From: A prospective study on histone γ-H2AX and 53BP1 foci expression in rectal carcinoma patients: correlation with radiation therapy-induced outcome

Fig. 1

Comparison of histone γ-H2AX foci in PBMCs derived from control donors and unselected RC patients. a DNA damage assessed by means of the histone γ-H2AX assay in non-irradiated and b-d in irradiated PBMCs derived from unselected RC patients (triangles), as compared to the cells from apparently healthy donors (circles). Initial (b), residual (c - 0.5 Gy, 24 h, d - 2 Gy, 24 h) DNA damage were assessed in PBMCs after irradiation with 0.5 Gy (b, c) or 2 Gy (d) in vitro. Filled squares represent the mean values (± SE) for the respective group
