Ionizing Radiation-Induced Cell Death Is Partly Caused by Increase of Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species in Normal Human Fibroblast Cells
25 Mar 2015
Abstract excerpt
Radiation-induced cell death is thought to be caused by nuclear DNA damage that cannot be repaired. However, in this study we found that a delayed increase of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) is responsible for some of the radiation-induced cell death in normal human fibroblast cells. We have previously reported that there is a delayed increase of mitochondrial (·)O2(-), measured using MitoSOX™ Red...
