 AB    Fibroblasts cultured from skin biopsies of patients with AIDS and
       Kaposi's sarcoma were found to be more radiosensitive than fibroblasts
       from non-HIV-infected-sources. This supports clinical observations of
       overt sensitivity to radiotherapy in some AIDS patients with Kaposi's
       sarcoma.
