RESULTS<br />

Fig.3.4.4b DNA damage in EL-4 cells cultured for 2 h in presence of different conditioned<br />

media was measured using single cell gel electrophoresis (‘comet assay’) and expressed as tail<br />

length. Key: Lane 1, control EL-4 cells; Lane 2, EL-4 cells receiving medium from LPSstimulated<br />

(500ng/ml) and γ irradiated RAW 264.7 cells; Lane 3, EL-4 cells receiving medium<br />

from γ irradiated RAW 264.7 cells without LPS-stimulation; Lane 4, EL-4 cells receiving<br />

medium from LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells; Lane 5, EL-4 cells receiving medium from<br />

unirradiated RAW 264.7 cells. Data represents means ± SE of three independent<br />

3.4.5 Effect of L-NAME and cPTIO on Bystander response.<br />

Since the expressions of NF-κB and iNOS gene were significantly upregulated in irradiated as<br />

well as in bystander cells (Fig.3.4.5a, Lane 2 and 3), it was of interest to determine which<br />
