TTFields Influence DNA Damage Repair by Homologous Recombination in Glioma Cells. a pDNA-PKcs (pS2056) and total DNA-PK were compared between U-118 MG cells either untreated or treated with RT or TTFields alone or their combination at indicated time points post RT (4 Gy). Lamin B was used as loading control. b U-118 MG cells were transfected with an intact pGL2-Luc vector or vector that was linearized with either HindIII or EcoRI. Luc activity was measured in cells prior and post 24 h TTFields treatment. c-d U-118 MG cells were irradiated with 4 Gy and immediately treated with TTFields for 1 h, 2 h, or 24 h. c Rad 51 foci formation was analyzed by immunofluorescence at 24 h post treatment. Rad 51 foci (Red) and DAPI (blue) stained nuclei are shown. Scale bar - 5 μm. d The average Rad51 foci in cells with more than 5 foci are shown
