title: Collateral sensitivity to radiation and cis-platinum in a multidrug-resistant human leukemia cell line.
abstract: Although collateral sensitivity to gamma radiation has previously been described in multidrug-resistant tumor cell lines, we describe here a multidrug-resistant human T-cell acute lymphatic leukemia cell line, L100, which displayed increased sensitivity to both gamma radiation and cis-platinum. Cis-platinum cytotoxicity of parental L0 cells and L100 cells was enhanced, whereas radiation sensitivity of L0 and L100 cells was unaltered by glutathione depletion. These results indicate that disparate mechanisms are operative in the collateral sensitivity of L100 cells to gamma radiation and cis-platinum.
