Assessment of Normal Tissue Radiosensitivity by Evaluating DNA Damage and Repair Kinetics in Human Brain Organoids
7 Dec 2021
Abstract excerpt
DNA-double strand break (DSB), detected by immunostaining of key proteins orchestrating repair, like γH2AX and 53BP1, is well established as a surrogate for tissue radiosensitivity. We hypothesized that the generation of normal brain 3D organoids ("mini-brains") from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) combined with detection of DNA damage repair (DDR) may hold the promise towards developing personalized...
