Effect of hyperfractionated irradiation (HFRT) of prostate primary basal cells (PrEPs) on the transcriptome
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We irradiated PrEPs derived from four patients undergoing radical prostatectomy according to a HFRT protocol (20 single treatments). Transcriptome was analysed by NextGen sequencing. Gene expression profiling revealed a dysregulation of 3468 genes at mRNA level (1470 upregulated and 1998 downregulated). We could characterize cells surviving the lethal effects of radiation by two gene expression signatures showing that these cells have low expression of genes related to DNA damage response and Interferon signaling pathways. These findings could be exploited to develop new drugs for radiotherapy improvement.
