Ionizing radiation enhances IL-6 and IL-8 production by human endothelial cells
Irradiation exposure is known to induce an inflammatory reaction. Endothelial cells play a crucial role both in the inflammatory process and in radiation damage. Therefore, supernatants and cell lysates of 60Co-irradiated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) have been assessed for the pres...
