GNP-mediated radiation therapy. a Schematic showing formation of harmful species, such as free radicals, when incoming radiation interacts with GNPs. b Experimental survival fraction of cells treated with a 2 Gy radiation dose. Data are “mean ± SD” for n = 3. c Probing of DNA DSBs 24 h after radiation treatment to assess the effect of radiation treatment (left most panel: nuclei marked in blue; middle panel: γH2AX foci marked in green; and right most panel: merged image)
