Description

We studied the effect of low and high-dose rate photon radiation on activation of cell death by apoptosis and necrosis in malignant cell lines of lymphocytic origin Raji and Jurkat (human B and T-cell lymphomas) and normal human lymphocytes from healthy volunteers. It was shown that photon radiation with ultra-high dose rate induced significantly higher levels of "early" apoptosis and lower levels of necrosis compared to γ-radiation with dose rate used for radiation therapy.
