Characteristics of the adaptive response in cultured salmon cells exposed to ionizing radiation

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of "priming" doses of ionizing irradiation on salmon cell survival in vitro prior to being challenged with subsequent higher doses. A radiation-induced adaptive response (AR) was examined in the Chinook salmon embryo cell line (CHSE-214). Cells were initially irradiated with a range of priming (conditioning) doses of (60)Co gamma (gamma) rays (0.25-0.75 Gy), followed by a challenge dose of …
