Therefore, mechanistic investigations on cells being present in joints are mostly made in an inflammatory setting. This raises the question whether similar effects of LD-RT are also seen in healthy tissue and thus might cause possible harmful effects. We performed examinations on the functionality and phenotype of key cells within the joint, namely on fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS), osteoclasts and osteoblasts, as well as on immune cells. Low doses of ionizing radiation showed only a minor impact on cytokine release by healthy FLS as well as on molecules involved in cartilage and bone destruction and had no significant impact on cell death and migration properties. The bone resorbing abilities of healthy osteoclasts was slightly reduced following LD-RT and a positive impact on bone formation of healthy osteoblasts was observed after in particular exposure to 0.5 Gray (Gy). Cell death rates of bone-marrow cells were only marginally increased and immune cell composition of the bone marrow showed a slight shift from CD8+ to CD4+ T cell subsets. Taken together, our results indicate that LD-RT with particularly a single dose of 0.5 Gy has no harmful effects on cells of healthy joints.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms19103197","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,16]],"date-time":"2018-10-16T11:07:51Z","timestamp":1539688071000},"page":"3197","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["Low-Dose Radiotherapy Has No Harmful Effects on Key Cells of Healthy Non-Inflamed Joints"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5577-2302","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lisa","family":"Deloch","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiation Oncology, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Erlangen, Friedrich-Alexander-Universit\u00e4t Erlangen-N\u00fcrnberg (FAU), 91054 Erlangen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9605-4841","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michael","family":"R\u00fcckert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiation Oncology, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Erlangen, Friedrich-Alexander-Universit\u00e4t Erlangen-N\u00fcrnberg (FAU), 91054 Erlangen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rainer","family":"Fietkau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiation Oncology, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Erlangen, Friedrich-Alexander-Universit\u00e4t Erlangen-N\u00fcrnberg (FAU), 91054 Erlangen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6743-3351","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Benjamin","family":"Frey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiation Oncology, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Erlangen, Friedrich-Alexander-Universit\u00e4t Erlangen-N\u00fcrnberg (FAU), 91054 Erlangen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6375-5476","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Udo S.","family":"Gaipl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiation Oncology, Universit\u00e4tsklinikum Erlangen, Friedrich-Alexander-Universit\u00e4t Erlangen-N\u00fcrnberg (FAU), 91054 Erlangen, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"505","DOI":"10.3389\/fimmu.2015.00505","article-title":"Radio-immunotherapy-induced immunogenic cancer cells as basis for induction of systemic anti-tumor immune responses\u2014Pre-clinical evidence and ongoing clinical applications","volume":"6","author":"Derer","year":"2015","journal-title":"Front.
