Conclusions
Ø MSCs survive long-term post high dose γ-irradiation. Ø MSCs activate a robust DNA Damage Response via rapid γ-H2AX formation. Ø MSCs recover from IR-induced DNA damage by: (i) Activating DNA damage checkpoint mechanisms. (ii) Activating DNA DSB repair. (iii) Preventing induction of apoptosis.
