Abstract
Purpose/Objective: Until recently, radiation research has mainly focused on the tumor cell compartment. However, the genetically more stable microenvironment including the endothelial cell compartment has now been widely recognized to play a key role in radiation effects in vivo. One way to better understand radiation effects is the identification of genes regulated in response to radiation, which can affect the cell cycle, DNA repair, apoptosis, metastasis and angiogenesis. DNA microarray technology is now considered as an emerging technology to potentially explore cellular pathways. In order to better understand the effects of radiation on endothelial cells, we investigate here the gene expression profile of endothelial cells in response to ionizing radiation using a DNA chip.
