Figure 5. Dose dependent changes in lung epithelial colony formation following 600 MeV/nucleon 56Fe irradiation.

Figure 5

(A) Primary GFP lineage tagged club epithelial cells were isolated from unirradiated mice or mice exposed to 600 MeV/nucleon 56Fe (0, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.5 Gy) mice (Scgb1a1-Cre; Rosa26-mT/mG), fractionated, and co-cultured with mouse lung fibroblasts for 14 days. (B) Colonies were quantitated and the colony forming efficiency calculated as the percentage (± SEM) of seeded cells that give rise to colonies after 14 days in culture. Graph was plotted as the percent of colony forming efficiency normalized to the control. Significance to unirradiated controls indicated by: * (p ≤ 0.05).
