| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the study of radiation effects, understanding the frequency and quality of genomic mutations is a central issue, and highly accurate and comprehensive (genome-wide) analysis using the next-generation sequencing method has been long awaited. However, it is impossible to analyze an independent abnormality that occurs in each cell. In this study, we investigated the possibility of applying iPS cell technology for clonal expansion of X-irradiated cells. We tried to identify SNV and INDEL mutations in iPS cells established from human and mouse cells irradiated by various dose of X-ray and demonstrated the potential of iPS cell technology for genome-wide analysis of radiation effects.
