Research Abstract |
MicroRNA is the cellular RNA which was identified controlling expression of protein at a translation level in late years. There are many unknown parts about the function. However, some microRNAs about radiosensitivity of the cell are reported, and it is thought that new knowledge about the biological influence of the radiation may be provided if relations with microRNA and the radiosensitivity are analyzed in detail. It was thought that some microRNAs concerned radiosensitivity from the result of this study.
