Correlation of Dq, D0, and D10 values among 31 human oesophageal carcinoma cell lines. Arrows indicate the KYSE190 cell line, and broken arrows, KYSE70 cell line. The dose survival responses were analysed using a multitarget model, S = 100[1 − (1 − e−D/Do) N]. D0 is the dose that causes the straight-line portion of the survival curve to decrease to 37%, Dq, the dose at shoulder part of dose-survival curve, and D10, the dose that decrease the cell survival to 10%. Dq value of KYSE190 cells was close to zero.
