MRC5 and QU-DB bystander cells can produce bystander factors and induce radiation bystander effect

Radiation Induced Bystander Effect

Introduction: Radiation effects observed in cells that are not irradiated are known as non-targeted effects.  Radiation induced bystander effect (RIBE) as a kind of non-targeted effect has been introduced in recent  years.  RIBE  occurs  in  unexposed  cells  which  are  related  to  adjacent  or  distant  irradiated  cells.  RIBE  contradict with "target theory" which necessitates radiation tr...

The role of dose fractionation in the level of Radiation- Induced Bystander Effect in QU-DB Cells

Introduction: Radiation effects induced in non-irradiated cells are termed radiation- induced bystander effects (RIBE). The present study intends to examine the RIBE response of QU-DB bystander cells to first, second and third radiation fractions and compare their cumulative outcome with an equal, single acute dose.   Materials and Methods: This experimental ...

comparison of radiation-induced bystander effect in qu-db cells after acute and fractionated irradiation: an in vitro study

objective: radiation effects induced in non-irradiated cells are termed radiation-induced bystander effects (ribe). the present study intends to examine the ribe response of qu-db bystander cells to first, second and third radiation fractions and compare their cumulative outcome with an equal, single acute dose. materials and methods: this experimental study irradiated three groups of target ce...

Radiation Bystander Effects Mechanism

  Introduction: Radiation Induced Bystander Effect (RIBE) which cause radiation effects in non-irradiated cells, has challenged the principle according to which radiation traversal through the nucleus of a cell is necessary for producing biological responses. What is the mechanism of this phenomenon? To have a better understanding of this rather ambiguous concept substantial number of original ...
