X-ray irradiation inhibited DNA synthesis in tumor cell lines in vitro. DNA synthesis (scale bar = 200 μm) was detected by 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine incorporation (EdU) incorporation assay in X-ray irradiated HepG2 cells after culturing for 24 h (A). DNA synthesis was detected by EdU incorporation assay in X-ray irradiated HepG2 (B), Huh7 (C), and SK-Hep1 (D) cells after culturing for 24 h and 72 h. DNA synthesis in these three cell lines exposed to 30 Gy and 50 Gy X-ray irradiation after culturing for 24 h is shown in panel E. Date are means ± SEM; n = 6. Con: the dose of irradiation was 0 Gy. **p < 0.01 vs. the control group at the same culture time; # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01 vs. the same treated group cultured for 24 h.
