(A) Flow chart of colony formation assay and foci assay. (B) Surviving fraction of indicated cell lines treated with sodium pyruvate (10 μM), MnTBAP (50 μM) or Carboxy-PTIO (50 μM) in combination with BEMER therapy and radiotherapy. (C) Number of γH2AX/53BP1-positive DSBs 24 h after irradiation in A549 and UTSCC15 cells. Cells were treated with indicated scavenger agents and BEMER therapy (~35 μT, 8 min). BEMER sham-treated (sham), irradiated cells served as control. All results represent mean ± SD. Student's t-test. n = 3. ** P < 0.01. n.s., not significant.
