Summary

The data demonstrate cooling-enhanced in vitro radiation sensitivity which is dependent upon cooling temperature, duration, and rewarming interval before irradiation. While cell cycle redistribution does not appear to be a factor in the increased radiosensitivity, differences in the radiation survival curves suggest that diminished capacity for sublethal damage repair may be a significant influence on the changes which were observed.
