Differential response to acute low dose radiation in primary and immortalized endothelial cells
21 May 2013
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The low dose radiation response of primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and its immortalized derivative, the EA.hy926 cell line, was evaluated and compared. MATERIAL AND METHODS: DNA damage and repair, cell cycle progression, apoptosis and cellular morphology in HUVEC and EA.hy926 were evaluated after exposure to low (0.05-0.5 Gy) and high doses (2 and 5 Gy) of acute X-rays. RESULTS:...
