Abstract
The effects of low- and medium-dose X-rays on mitochondrial function in mesenchymal stem (stromal) cells (MSCs) were compared. Irradiation at a dose of 80 mGy did not lead to mitochondrial disorders in MSCs by all analyzed parameters, while 24 h after irradiation at a dose of 2000 mGy, damage to mitochondrial and nuclear DNA was recorded, as well as the initiation of replicative synthesis of mitochondrial DNA involving damaged molecules, which led to an increase in the level of heteroplasmy. The increased level of mitochondrial DNA heteroplasmy after irradiation at a dose of 2000 mGy was accompanied by a decrease in the expression of genes involved in the process of oxidative phosphorylation and regulating mitochondrial dynamics.
期刊介绍:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine presents original peer reviewed research papers and brief reports on priority new research results in physiology, biochemistry, biophysics, pharmacology, immunology, microbiology, genetics, oncology, etc. Novel trends in science are covered in new sections of the journal - Biogerontology and Human Ecology - that first appeared in 2005.
World scientific interest in stem cells prompted inclusion into Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine a quarterly scientific journal Cell Technologies in Biology and Medicine (a new Russian Academy of Medical Sciences publication since 2005). It publishes only original papers from the leading research institutions on molecular biology of stem and progenitor cells, stem cell as the basis of gene therapy, molecular language of cell-to-cell communication, cytokines, chemokines, growth and other factors, pilot projects on clinical use of stem and progenitor cells.
The Russian Volume Year is published in English from April.
