Increased γ-H2A.X intensity in response to chronic medium-dose-rate γ-ray irradiation.

BACKGROUND: The molecular mechanisms of DNA repair following chronic medium-dose-rate (MDR) γ-ray-induced damage remain largely unknown. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We used a cell function imager to quantitatively measure the fluorescence intensity of γ-H2A.X foci in MDR (0.015 Gy/h and 0.06 Gy/...
