Apoptosis is initiated in human keratinocytes exposed to signalling factors from microbeam irradiated cells
1 Jan 2006
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: There is now no doubt that bystander signalling from irradiated cells occurs and causes a variety of responses in cells not targeted by the ionizing track. However, the mechanisms underlying these processes are unknown and the relevance to radiotherapy and risk assessment remains controversial. Previous research by our laboratory has shown bystander effects in a human keratinocyte cell line, HPV-G cells,...
