Subcutaneous wounding enhances 30-day survival of male C57BL/6 mice. Mice either received a sham cut, or a 3-mm SC incision approximately 20 min postirradiation with 6.5 Gy of X rays. Analyzing the 30-day surviving fraction using the Mantel-Hanenzel method shows a significant difference between cut and sham-cut mice; P = 0.0134. Experimental groups consisted of 13–18 mice in 2 independent experiments. Error bars represent SEM from mice across both experiments.
