Normal human fibroblast cell line bystander effects by Carbon ion irradiation
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We have recently investigated the response of irradiated and bystander fibroblasts to heavy ions in confluent cultures exposed randomly to broadbeam and selectively to precision microbeam that target a predefined fraction of cells with counted number of particle(s), respectively, and found the difference in the time course of apoptosis induction and p53 phosphorylation between irradiated and bystander cells [Hamada MR2008]. In the present investigation, to further scrutinize the underpinnings of their temporally distinct responses, we set out to examine the gene expression changes in irradiated and bystander fibroblasts at a genome-wide level with the microarray analysis under the same experimental condition. We demonstrate that the gene expression profiles of bystander cells are substantially different from those of heavy ion-irradiated cells. Keywords: bystander effect, hour-time course cell number dependency, irradiation-dose response
