Long-term Effects of γ-irradiation on Cultured Human Thyroid Cells

Abstract

When differentiated 15-day-old cultures of human thyroid glands were irradiated they exhibited a high degree of radiosensitivity, an absence of split-dose recovery, an increase in the number of non-senescent colonies observed over four passages, increased focus formation on the confluent postirradiation monolayer and a shift in the isozyme pattern of LDH towards the anaerobic form (LD 5). The effects are similar to those previously observed for …
