Evaluation of continuous low dose rate versus acute single high dose rate radiation combined with oncolytic viral therapy for prostate cancer.

abstract：:Cell death induced by various radiation doses in Molt-4 and L5178Y cells was studied. Molt-4 cells have a low threshold for induction of interphase death while L5178Y cells have a high threshold. Interphase death in Molt-4 cells at doses > 100 Gy and in L5178Y cells at doses > 300 Gy showed typical necrosis. In contra...
