Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I investigated the mechanisms and the protection methods of X-ray-induced delay of myotube formation. I evaluated the alterations of gene expressions of four key transcription factors and demonstrated the decrease in myogenin gene expression related to the X-ray-induced decrease in myotube formation. I also find that the cell cycle distributions and cell growth state of C2C12 cells affected the effects of X-ray irradiation on myotube formation. In addition, I showed that fibroblast growth factor and/or hepatocyte growth factor had the ability to protect the X-ray-induced decrease in myotube formation if these growth factors appropriately used in the point of concentration and/or time point, and so on.
