Fibroblast radiosensitivity

[Mark Hanlon <MarkH@nch.edu.au>]

Hello all.

Does anyone have information about whether mouse and/or human
fibroblasts are relatively more or less sensitive to radiation than human
lymphocytes  ?  If so, by what approximate factor ?

I don't need specific references for this information,  just an impression of
the relative radiosensitivity.

Thanks,
