Proton induced DNA double strand breaks at the Bragg peak: Evidence of enhanced LET effect
PURPOSE: To investigate DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) induced by therapeutic proton beams in plateau and Bragg peak to demonstrate DSB induction due to the higher LET in the Bragg peak. MATERIALS AND METHODS: pUC19 plasmid DNA samples were irradiated to doses of 1000 and 3000 Gy on a Mevion S250i...
