Abstract
The aim of this work was to estimate the differences in activation of DNA repair pathways of DNA double-strand and single-strand breaks induced by ultrashort pulse electron beam irradiation in human K-562 cells. The activation of HR, NHEJ and BER DNA repair pathways was studied at non-lethal, sub-lethal and lethal doses of irradiation. Our results indicate that the activation of the specific repair pathways and repair kinetics depend on the irradiation dose.
