Advances in Radiation Biology, Volume 6, provides an overview of the state of knowledge in the field of radiation biology. The book contains eight chapters and opens with a study on the nature of radiation effects on nucleic acid metabolism in mammalian cells. This is followed by separate chapters on the nature of UV effects on transcriptional functions; interrelationships between ionizing radiation, protein synthesis, and the physiological expressions of radiation damage; and correlation of DNA repair activities and cellular effects in irradiated mammalian cells. Subsequent chapters deal with the interaction of heat and radiation on an in vitro and an in vivo system; the role of hyperthermia for cancer therapy; thermal potentiation of mammalian cell killing; and autologous stem-cell banks for restoring hemopoiesis.
