In vitro cellular systems are particularly important models for studying radiation effects and understanding the molecular damages caused by such physical mutagens. Ionizing radiation is of fundamental interest for space missions and particularly in view of the «International Space Station» utilization.The fate of cells exposed to outer space radiation may definitely depend from the modification of gene expression levels.Only an exhaustive perception of the induction/repression profiles of specific genes following exposure of cells to radiation will help to disclose the mechanisms that govern the cellular response to injury.
