The order of sequential exposure of U2OS cells to gamma and alpha radiation influences the formation and decay dynamics of NBS1 foci.
DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) are a deleterious form of DNA damage. Densely ionising alpha radiation predominantly induces complex DSBs and sparsely ionising gamma radiation-simple DSBs. We have shown that alphas and gammas, when applied simultaneously, interact in producing a higher DNA damage re...
