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

Fig. 3

Histone γ-H2AX foci in PBMCs derived from normally-reacting and radiosensitive (grade 2 and grade 3) RC patients. a DNA damage assessed by means of the histone γ-H2AX assay in non-irradiated and b-d irradiated PBMCs derived from normally-reacting RC patients (grade 0 and 1, up triangles) compared to cells from radiation-sensitive (GI toxicity, Additional file 1: Table S2) RC patients with grade 2 (down triangles, n = 19) and grade 3 (up triangles, n = 8). Peripheral lymphocytes were prepared from the blood samples derived from RC patients. For details, see legend to Fig. 2
