Spontaneous accumulation of DNA strand breaks in ATM-deficient cells. (A) Alkaline comet assay on TIG1 cells depleted of ATM for the indicated amount of time. The amount of DNA damage, expressed as percentage of DNA in the comet tails, increases in a time-dependent manner (N = 3). (B) Neutral comet assay on TIG1 cells treated as in panel A. The amount of DNA damage, expressed as percentage of DNA in the comet tails, increases in a time-dependent manner (N = 3). Results are expressed as mean ± SD from the indicated number (N) of independent experiments: *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01.
