Effects of gamma radiation on adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells of human breast tissue
Background: During radiation therapy, stromal cells surrounding the tumor (e.g mesenchymal stem cells) may affect the treatment outcomes. We aimed to investigate the effects of gamma radiation on the mRNA expression of cytokines, DNA damage and population doubling time (PDT) of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs). Material and methods: ASCs were enzymatically extracted from breast tis...
متن کاملRadiation-Induced Bystander Effects in Cultured Human Stem Cells
BACKGROUND The radiation-induced "bystander effect" (RIBE) was shown to occur in a number of experimental systems both in vitro and in vivo as a result of exposure to ionizing radiation (IR). RIBE manifests itself by intercellular communication from irradiated cells to non-irradiated cells which may cause DNA damage and eventual death in these bystander cells. It is known that human stem cells ...
متن کاملepigenetic of stem cells
differentiation of stem cells from a pluripotent to a committed state involves global changes in genome expression patterns, the best known as “epigenetic modifications”. epigenetic mechanisms, including histone modifications, dna methylation and non-coding rna-mediated regulatory events are considered as the essential factors to control the heritable cellular memory of gene expression during d...
متن کاملNeoplastic human embryonic stem cells as a model of radiation resistance of human cancer stem cells
Studies have implicated that a small sub-population of cells within a tumour, termed cancer stem cells (CSCs), have an enhanced capacity for tumour formation in multiple cancers and may be responsible for recurrence of the disease after treatment, including radiation. Although comparisons have been made between CSCs and bulk-tumour, the more important comparison with respect to therapy is betwe...
متن کاملLow-dose fractionated radiation potentiates the effects of cisplatin independent of the hyper-radiation sensitivity in human lung cancer cells.
In this study, the role of hyper-radiation sensitivity (HRS) in potentiating the effects of cisplatin by low-dose fractionated radiation (LDFRT) was evaluated in four human non-small cell lung cancer cell lines. Presence of HRS and cisplatin enhancement ratio (CER) by LDFRT/2 Gy was assessed using colony-forming and apoptotic assays. Cell-cycle disturbances were studied by flow cytometry. Expre...
